TurboTax may say you contributed excess to your HSA if the total contributions reported (from you, your employer, or others) exceed the IRS limits for 2025.

Important points:
1. The maximum combined contribution limit is $4,300 for self-only coverage and $8,550 for family coverage if you are under 55.
2. Limits are prorated based on the number of months you had HDHP coverage.
3. Ensure you haven't accidentally entered the same contribution twice, for example, manually and via your W-2 Box 12 code W.
4. Check all HSA entries carefully in the contribution section to avoid double-counting.

If you find an error, correct or remove duplicate entries. If your contributions did exceed limits, you may need to withdraw the excess amount by April 15, 2026 to avoid penalties.
