I have a client that is a member of the clergy.  In prior years he was responsible for all of his Self Employment tax on his W2 and Housing Allowance.  This year, the church paid 1/2 of his social security and included that on his W-2.  Within Pro-Series on the W-2 worksheet, when I select box F3 (Pay Self-Employment tax on W-2 Income and Housing Allowance) I get an error that says this should not be checked if Social Security or Medicare has been withheld on the taxpayer's W-2.

How do I get the program to calculate what SS should have been reduced by what was paid on his W-2?

Thank you in advance.
