S3-F1040-144 e-file error
)
There's an amount on Schedule 3, line 11 for excess Social Security and tier 1 RRTA tax withheld, but there is only one W-2 included in the e-file for the employee.
Solution
- Go to the W2 screen in theIncomefolder.
- If there's only 1 W2 for the employee with excess tax withheld, see IRS Topic No. 608 Excess Social Security and RRTA Tax Withheld.
- If there are 2 W-2s:
- Make sure the Social Security number matches on both, and matches the taxpayer or spouse's SSN entered on the 1040 screen in theGeneralfolder.
- Check theBox 1wages. If 1 of the 2 W-2s has 0 entered in Box 1, you'll need to paper file the return. The IRS doesn't allow W-2s with 0 wages to be included in the e-file.
