Same problem - filing for my daughter and the recommended answer does NOT work. Even called help line - nothing works! I believe this is a programming error, but phone help recommended requesting a corrected W-2 (employer is considering, but doesn't think this is appropriate). Please fix this! The instructions for Form 8889 do not say you have to check line 1 to use the form, but you must file for such situations (excess contributions by employer, etc).
