Why would Turbo Tax say it looks like I have an excess contribution to my HSA of $3,770 when my total contribution was $3,770? That is less than the limit of 4150.

I contributed $2370 through payroll (which it pulled in from my w-2) and $1400 was an "individual contribution" I made prior to a large medical expense, which I manually added into turbo tax.

To answer my own question, I incorrectly answered the earlier question about High Deductible Health Plans. I had not heard that term before, so I answered no, that I did not have one, but t hen I saw TurboTax's note that you must have one to have an HSA. So I changed my answer to yes and all was resolved.
