SEP IRA Contributions

In June 2020, I left employment as a statutory employee, where I made some income as W2 wages and some as 1099 income (I was a financial advisor/career agent for a mutual life insurance company).  Up until that time, I had access to a 401k, where I made contributions.  When I left, I became 100% self-employed, with no access to a 401k.  I made $6,000 in SEP IRA contributions for the rest of 2020. 

 

When I input this into Turbotax, it's saying my contribution is not deductible because my MAGI was too high.  It seems to be treating the contribution as if it's going into a traditional IRA, not a SEP IRA.  Is there a workaround to this, as I'm also planning to make some additional SEP IRA contributions this month that would also go towards 2020.  Thanks for your guidance.
