No,  there's no way to reverse this because 401(k) contributions would have to have been made, through your employer, in 2019.

  • That would also mean your employer would have to refile all the payroll tax forms and give you a corrected W-2.
  • There also isn't a way to make the change in TurboTax, using the income tax forms.
