Deductions & credits

"I discovered that I added Excess HSA Contribution in 2022 by mistake" - What does this mean? You added the excess to where?

 

"I paid already tax on that excess amount last year." - Which tax? The income tax on the excess that was added by to your Other Income? or some other tax?

 

"In 2023, how can I fix that? It is showing now that I still carry the excess HSA contribution and I have to pay 6% penalty on that amount as well." - So you carried over the excess from 2022 to 2023 or what? You should have been charged the 6% in 2022 when you did not withdraw the excess in early 2023.

 

Did you make HSA contributions in 2023? If so, how much? What was your HDHP coverage?

 

Please do not make any changes to the 5329 or 8889 until we understand what you actually did.
