Deductions & credits

Thanks for the reply.

Just a couple of notes:

1.  The $860 excess contribution for 2021 was already withdrawn in 2022 even though it was after the filing deadline.  I then amended my 2021 return at which time TurboTax charged me the associated income tax along with the 6% penalty on the $860.  Just wanted to reiterate this, not sure I did the right thing.

2.  The value in my HSA is fairly substantial and cannot be drawn down to $0.00 unless I have a catastrophic medical event this year.

3.  What is my other option for fixing this?  I believe I can take a non-qualified distribution of $860 from my HSA this year but in doing so, I believe I will incur a 20% additional penalty on my 2023 Tax return.  What bothers me is that the $860 was already withdrawn and income tax and penalty were already paid.  I hate to have to withdraw another $860.  Not sure any of this is correct so I am eager to hear what options I have to fix this.
