Form 8889 Line 2, include excess contribution withdrawn?
I made an excess contribution to my HSA in 2021. I notified the HSA administrator and they withdrew the excess contribution during 2021. I received a 1099-SA that correctly shows the distribution and the earnings on excess contributions.
Should the amount in Box 2 of the 8889 include the excess contribution, or not?
in the Turbotax interview, when it says how much did you contribute, do i include the excess contribution or not? If I include the amount, Turbotax tells me to go withdraw it, but I have already withdrawn it.
If i just tell TT the net (final) amount, it puts that amount on line 2 of form 8889.
