Nothing you can do beforehand to avoid this when you have 2 different employers.   You WILL get that excess SS refunded on the tax return if the combined SS from both W2s exceeds the annual limit.

. For 2018, the maximum amount of taxable earnings is $128,400. Do you expect to make more than that?
