Retirement tax questions
I worked for two employers in 2022 and accidently over contributed ~ $4500 to my 401(k) accounts when I look at the combined contributions in 2022. I reported and requested excess returned and received the a check for excess contribution prior to April 15, 2023. I have attempted to report this additional $4500 of Wage Income in in 2022 tax return under Misc Income, "other income not already reported on a Form W-2 or Form 1099" and then under "Any Other Earned Income", then selected "Employee compensation that was not reported on a W-2", then skipping forward to "Report Your Wage Income" I entered my employer's name and total wages received (that were not reported on my @w-2 because they were excess contributions). But, it forces a reason code that does not fit my situation. Where can I write this is an excess contribution to my 401k that I have withdrawn prior to April 15, 2023?
