Thanks, if all goes onto line 6a in TurboTax, it becomes red from the overage. Reducing the overage and putting it on 6c makes both accepted.
TT is not automatically allowing the 31,000 limit which I did not exceed. So, if acceptable to split it into the 2 cells, then this is settled. It also leaves the W2 alone.
It seems that splitting is acceptable and nothing else is needed. Since nothing identified the overage as catch-up, this may be semantics about where to put it by carefully reading. The more I read, the more it makes sense. An alert, caution or popup would be helpful to guide this rather than simply make it red and leave it for this discussion, etc., to figure out.
The end result works out without concern by splitting the values on 6a and 6c and as a lesson to watch out.
Thank you again
