Good Afternoon
I hope you are doing well during this pandemic.
In 2018 I contributed more than the max allowed 401K contribution due to having 2 employers.
I did include the taxable overage on my 2018 taxes (although I think I used a wrong figure and will likely have to amend those taxes).
I did receive 1099 R forms and did populate all the boxes needed for my 2019 returns on my turbo tax forms. I did have a loss from the excess deferral that I took out last year. My question is where to report this amount in my 2019 return. The letter fromFidelity states " the loss attributable to your excess deferral may be reported as a negative amount on the Other Income line of your 2019 Federal and State (if applicable) income tax returns." I tried to place this value in different areas of other income, but keep receiving errors. What is your recommendation.
Thank you for your assistance.

The amount will be reported on line 8 of Schedule 1 (Form 1040).
where would you record a loss attributable to an excess deferral?
You would report it in Other Reportable income as a negative number for a loss.
In TurboTax, open your return and follow these steps:
