Retirement tax questions
Re reading your post, I think I assumed that "in January" was January 2017. Now I think you meant January 2018 *for* 2017.
If that is the case, then it would seem that Vanguard did treat the contribution made *in* 2017 that you wanted to apply to 2016 as a 2017 contribution instead, so no 2016 contribution was posted at all. That would be consistent with the code N.
Again, if that is what happened, then that would make the January 2018 contribution *for* 2017 an excess 2017 contribution, unless Vanguard also posted that as a *2018* contribution instead of a 2017 contribution.
