HSA

I was charged an extra tax for excess contributions in my HSA.  I am 59 years old and deposit 4500.00 total, including any amounts that my employer puts in. That's 3500.00, plus the 1000.00 for being over 55.   Why did I get charged when I didn't make excess contributions?  There is only one line to put that amount in that I saw.  How can I fix this?  I was overcharged 270.00 in taxes and will probably be again next year if no one shows me what I did wrong,  or what Turbo Tax did wrong...whichever it is.  I've used this for years and as far as I know never had an incorrect calculation until now. Also, why in the world does it cost me 60.00 to file?
