Lion EA Posted April 10, 2022 Report Share Posted April 10, 2022 First time ever: W-2 Box 7 Social security tips for $3,200. Is the $3,200 already included in Boxes 1 through 6? Do I have to put the $3,200 anyplace? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee B Posted April 10, 2022 Report Share Posted April 10, 2022 Does Box 7 + Box 3 = Box 1 ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slippery Pencil Posted April 10, 2022 Report Share Posted April 10, 2022 Should be included in box 1. On the W2 input, you need to enter the amount in box 7. I think you need to override box 3, but I don't recall. Box 4 will calculate based on the total of box 3 & 7. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lion EA Posted April 10, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2022 Thanx, all. Yes, Box 7 + Box 3 = Box 1. And, I get no diagnostics. Haven't had a Box 7 before (I do have a hairdresser with unreported tips, but I know what form to use.) Medicare tax is perfect for Box 5. But SS tax is too much for Box 3 alone, but too little for Box 3 + Box 7. Again, I'm not getting any diagnostics. And, it's a kid who's under the standard deduction and getting all his w/h back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medlin Software, Dennis Posted April 11, 2022 Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 There are cases where there is not enough pay, sans tips, to cover all withholding. SS could have been what the employer elected to “short”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
