Taxpayers are married filing joint. Both employers contributed $3550 for self only and $8025 for spouse with family plan. Spouse is over 55. Since $10625 is over maximum allowed for family plan amount of $7200, is there any remedy to avoid tax on excess contribution of $3425?
Please help. Thank you. Hwan

Corrective distribution by 4/15. Be sure to read up on it. Also if they've already spent it, there is a provision that the penalty is based on the lesser of the excess contribution or the balance in the accounts.
