I have excess HSA contributions from 2023, but no HSA in 2024 -- How do I file Form 8889?

We overcontributed to our HSA in 2023 and need to pay the 6% tax on the overcontribution this year. We haven't had an HDHP since mid-2023, so TurboTax is having a hard time with our filing. 

 

Do I need to file Form 8889? We didn't make any contributions, and we didn't take any distributions from the HSA either. I keep getting an error for checking a box in Form 8889, but neither myself or my husband had HDHP coverage in 2024.
