    SE Taxes on income in excess of $102,000
    I made over $102,000 last year in my personal (writing) business, and need to pay SE taxes on that, but I also was employed by and received a W-2 from another business, where Social Security was already withheld. How can I keep from paying excess SS taxes, since we don't need to pay SS on incomes over $102,000? Is that what lines 8a-d on the SE form are for, stating the income on which you've already paid SS taxes?

    Thanks so much for your help...

    If you use tax software, this will be done automatically by the software.

    If not, you should not be doing your own return; get professional tax help!
