If you're using TurboTax Desktop, make sure your program is updated.  You can do a Manual Update.    If this doesn't resolve the error, go back to your K-1 entry and enter $0 in Box R on the K1 and Report $23,000 on line 6a and $7500 on line 6c of the worksheet.   If you're using TurboTax Online, clear your Cache and Cookies and step through the section again.    Let us know if it doesn't resolve for you.   Here's more info on Entering a Solo 401K Contribution.   @dd8840     

You can enter the 1099-MISC and not have it create a Schedule C, if you answer the questions so that TurboTax doesn't "think" it represents self-employment.   If you enter it in the 1099-MISC section, you have the option to select that none of the description choices applies, and then to enter your own explanation. Say "no" to the question about it involving work and "no" to the question about it involving an intent to earn money.   If you put it in Miscellaneous Income, Other Reportable Income, it does say not to put a 1099-MISC there but you can make the entry there. It just asks for a description and amount and doesn't have follow up questions.   @BigTegan

First, I would try deleting them (your W-2's) and re-enter them manually.   To delete your Forms W-2 you can: Sign into your return Click on" Pick up where you left off" Click "Search" at the top right of your screen In the search box, type "W-2" Click on "Jump to W-2"               (See screenshots below for additional guidance) Click on the garbage can icon next to your Form W-2 you want to delete. To manually enter your Form W-2 you can: Open or continue your return Click "Search" at the top right of your screen In the search box, type "W-2" Click on "Jump to W-2"               (See screenshots below for additional guidance) Your screen will say "We'll start with your W-2", click the box "Work on my W-2" want to file Your screen will say "Let's Start With a Bit of Info From Your W-2" , enter your Employer ID from Box b of your W-2" Click on "Continue" You can select "Type it myself" The next screens will prompt you for the information you see on your W-2. Answer all follow-up screens You would enter all of your Forms W-2 in the federal section of TurboTax. When you get to the state filings, you should enter your nonresident state return (MA) first because your resident state might give you a credit for any taxes paid in that state..   I don't know if you entered your nonresident tax return first but you should complete your nonresident returns first. You may want to try to delete your state tax returns and re-enter again.     The only other thing I can suggest is to try contacting TurboTax Customer Service. They may be able to share your screen to see what is happening. Turbo Tax Customer Service     To search for your Forms W-2:       Click here for information regarding filing multiple state returns.   Click here for additional information on filing when multiple states are involved.

It looks like it's carrying forward the excess contributions. I'm just confused why it would carry forward when it should not have been contributed in the first place? The 6% penalty was paid last year and the money was removed from the account.
