Bug Report

Hi,

I think you have a bug when evaluating if to much SS tax was withheld.  It appears to me that depending upon the situation it is rounding the w4 box data.  Our return is a joint return.  I maxed out social security wages this year and entered 8239.80 in box 4.  When evaluating what was withheld it rounded to the nearest dollar and compared that to the max withholding.  It said that to much was withheld, but that 0.00 would be refunded.  For my wife her withholding ended in .47 and that is what is in box 4.  When comparing the appropriate withholding it displayed .50 and rounded it up to the nearest  dollar.  Doing so it said she should get $1.00 back.

 

Thank you,

I have similar bug. In box 4, my W2 correctly has 6.2% of the amount shown in box 3, however it claims I am entitled to a refund.  The pop-up states the max amount that can be withheld in my case is 0 dollars, which is erroneous.

 

A big blatant bug. Kill it, please!

 

Thank you.
