Question

I put the wrong amount for social security received. How do I go about paying a higher amount I owe?

Instead of putting the amount from box 5 from SSA1099. I put the amount after calculating the taxable amount.

If you have not yet filed, simply go back to the 1099-R screen and edit the form.

If you have filed, the IRS might catch the error and correct it for you. If not, you can file an Amended return and pay the lesser amount owed.
