Solo 401 K contribution keeps showing up as a SEP???
I have a solo 401 K that I have just started and I am making a contribution for 2021 tax year (one time IRS allowance). I am not allowed to make the emploree contribution for 2021 but I can make the employer contribution. I read to enter that in the box that says Employer Matching (Profit Sharing) Contributions. But when I do that the retirement contributions page shows the contribution to a SEP plan, no contribution to a Individual 401 k plan and an idential matching employer contribution. If I do not enter anything at all in any of the boxes showing contributions, the retirement contributions page still shows the same previous amount as a SEP contribution but nothing in the other boxes. I don't even know how this is possible. And in this view there is no individual 401 k row even there anymore. No where have I indicated a SEP contribution. I actually checked that we would NOT be making a contribution to a SEP plan. What am I doing wrong and how can I show my contribution was to my individual 401 (k) and not to an SEP, so that the deduction is given and credited to the correct retirement plan? At this point it is still showing a contribution to a non existant SEP account even though I have removed all references to any contribution at all. I'm totally lost here.
