2021 tax filings

There appears to be significant error with the intuit 2021 tax filing software. Specifically, in the calculations of taxes paid, for example Medicare withheld, the program will not allow one to file electronically unless the amount reported to have been withheld equals the amount the intuit programs thinks one should have paid. This is particularly difficult for clergy who pay their own Medicare Tax on Housing, which is not subject to federal income tax, but the housing amount is reported on their W2. Bottom line is that the W2 asks for the amount withheld and not the amount that might be owed.  And I discussed this issue, extensively, with Intuit technical folks and was told that the payroll software has been written the way it is and that is that. So, I would suggest caution!
