Over Contribution to 401k in previous year
I over contributed towards my 401k last year and I contacted my employer in December 2022, notifying them the fact.
They said they will give me the over contributed amount back and issued me a 1099-R for year 2023. but nothing on my 2022 tax reporting will change, including 401k statement or W2.
So will i get a penalty if I filed my 2022 tax based on the W2 which has over contributed 401k?
thanks
