Wage Calculation is Incorrect

The total of the wages entered under "Wages and Income" is less than $200,000, but Turbotax is calculating it to be at over $1.1 million. Does anyone know how this could be possible or if a glitch like this has occurred before?

I figured it out. When I uploaded a picture of one of my forms via a QR code it put the state ID number in the income field.

Delete the W2 and enter it again Manually.  That usually clears something out and fixes it.
