HSA Overfunding Message Makes No Sense

[gjm123]

I am getting a message that I have overfunded my HSA by $50. I don't know why.

Employer HSA Contributions are shown to be zero

I enter $3550 in HSA contributions for 2020

I was covered by an HDHP in 2020

I was covered by a self only plan

I did not overfund my HSA in 2019 ( I have no Form 5329 in 2019 return)

The 2020 contribution limit is $3550

I scrubbed through this post https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/health-care/help/why-am-i-showing-an-excess-hsa-contribution/00/26...

I have updated TurboTax today March 17, 2021.

What am I missing?

Best

what version of Turbotax are you using?  that message would only make sense if you were using the  2019 app. 

2019 can not be updated/used for 2020

@Mike9241 Thanks for trying to help. I am using 2020 for sure. Says it right at the top of the desktop application. Yes, it makes no sense. I am plumb out of ideas. Nobody else except somebody last November has posted on this problem so it has to be something about my install. I wonder if a complete update is failing and it is not getting that new limit for 2020. I have 2019 installed but I am definitely running 2020. Thinking about uninstalling all version and doing a reinstall but don't want to burn activations on the license

Solved this. Vipre Antivirus had to be completely shut off when updating. Not just Active Protection. Total shutdown.
