An employee has reached Social Security Wage limit for this year from multiple jobs but not this one, how can I turn off ss tax withholding for the rest of the year?

You can't and you shouldn't. Each employer must deduct Social Security for all wages up to the limit. The same is true for most all state payroll taxes.

If the employee has multiple employers, they will pay more than the max for the taxes and then they'll get the taxes back when they file.

You can turn off social security tax withholding for an employee while editing their profile.

Here's how:
 

1. In your left navigation bar, go to Payroll, then Employees.
2. Find the worker you want to make changes for and click their Edit option under your Action column.
3. Remove the checkmark in your Ask this employee to enter their personal, tax (2020 W-4).... box.
4. Access the What are this employee's withholdings? section.
5. Under their Federal filing status*, click Exempt.
   
   
    
6. Go to your Tax exemptions area and tick the Social Security and Medicare option.
   
   
    
7. Select Done.

Now your employee with be exempt from social security withholding. You'll want to be aware that this doesn't turn off the employer portion of social security tax withholding.

I've also included a couple detailed resources which may come in handy moving forward:
 

• Understand payroll tax wage bases & limits
• Exempt your employee from Federal or State Withholding
