Why would Turbo tax say I've deferred payment of social security taxes when I am a government employee and haven't done anything different this year from year's past?

I updated the software and got the same message. I didn't defer any SS taxes? Is this a glitch? I plan to ignore it if I don't see a response by 2/22/21.

If you got the message "Heads up! You have a W-2C coming" . This was fixed in the newest release on 2/19/2021. If it hasn't been resolved yet please be patient and continue on with your return.

Only the customers who now legitimately will receive a W-2C will still get the pop up.

A W-2c form is used by the United States Internal Revenue Service for tax filing and reporting services. This form is known as a Corrected Wage and Tax Statement form.
