Why is it saying my roth contribution is too high when I put in 22120?

The designated Roth account in your employer's retirement plan is not a Roth IRA.  Enter amounts shown in box 12 of your W-2 only in box 12 of TurboTax's W-2 form, nowhere else in TurboTax.  Remove the entry that you made in the Roth IRA contribution section.
