457(b) Plan Excess Contribution

I know this has been addressed in prior questions but I am getting mixed answers.

 

In 2025, I changed jobs and inadvertently made an extra $2,200 contribution into my 457(b) plan. I already corrected the matter by requesting and receiving the $2,200 from the plan before the April 15 deadline.

 

My question is this: which option do I use to report this untaxed $2,200?

I did the "Other earned income" option as shown below:

Can anyone confirm if this is right? It's on line "h"/"Other earned income" of the first page of the 1040 form, but it's not on any other schedule.

 

Thanks in advance for your assistance.
