The 6% is an excise tax on excess HSA contributions that carry over from year to year, not amounts that are in your HSA.
Are you talking about your 2024 return? In the HSA interview, if you contributed more than your annual HSA contribution limit, then TurboTax tells you that you have made excess contributions. TurboTax encourages you to withdraw the excess if you can before April 15th. If not, any excess that you cannot withdraw gets carried over to the next year and is hit with a 6% excise tax.
So, did you have excess contributions to your HSA in 2023 or 2024? We need to know more details on what you entered in the HSA interview in order to be able to help you.
