Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Your post is somewhat confusing......BUT...it sounds to me like you double-entered your 401k contributions.
1) you enter your W-2 in the software W-2 section.....and the 401k contribution of 9k is in box 12, code D on that software W-2 form. That is the ONLY place you enter your 401k contribution...nowhere else in the tax software.
2) On the Deductions & Credits page, there is an entry point for indicating contributions to an IRA or ROTH IRA. That area is NOT where you indicate your 9k of 401k contributions....That area is ONLY for contributions you made separately outside of your employer, to some personal "IRA or Roth IRA" account you own. Specifically to the two types of "IRAs"...nothing else, not 401k's not 403b's not TSP's ...only to actual IRA/Roth IRA accounts..
