You still have time to submit the correct form and get the excess out before Tax Day April 2015 with extensions
====
return of excess contribution:
before tax filing date including extension: positive earnings allocable to the excess are included in income on 1040 Line 4b for the year of the contribution. negative earnings are ignored; in any case, for purposes of basis, consider the original contribution amount as returned.
["Include the earnings in income for the year in which you made the contributions, not the year in
which you withdraw them."]
Note: You must have a) filed by tax day, or b) requested an extension of time to file by tax day to take advantage of the Oct 15 deadline.
