Deductions & credits
It can happen that numbers can get "stuck" in TurboTax. In this case, once the number for excess contributions withdrawn is calculated by TurboTax (really, the excess is calculated and you tell TurboTax how much to withdraw), you can't get rid of this number, even when you have changed all the other input which changes the excess (or reduces it to zero).
How do you fix this? By deleting all your HSA data and starting over.
1. make a copy of your W-2(s) (if you don't have the paper copies)
2. delete your W-2(s) (use the garbage can icon next to the W-2(s) on the Income screen)
*** Desktop***
3. go to View (at the top), choose Forms, and select the desired form. Note the Delete Form button at the bottom of the screen.
*** Online ***
3. go to Tax Tools (on the left), and navigate to Tools->Delete a form
4. delete form(s) 1099-SA (if one), 8889-T, and 8889-S (if one)
5. go back and re-add your W-2(s), preferably adding them manually
6. go back and redo the entire HSA interview.
