Form 8889 notice

[minkcpa]

I just got a notice from a client who got a larger refund on her 1040 and the notice is saying because of a missed HSA deduction. Upon reviewing the 8889 it computed no additional deduction which is correct however an incorrect number on line 3, $8,900, double what it should be creates a balance on line 12 that should have moved to line 13 and then to 1040. The instructions clearly say a self only coverage over age 55 is $4,450 but $8,900 somehow comes over? I just got off the phone with ATX and they are not up yet so they cannot help. I am surprised the IRS computers allowed a number greater than her age allows to be used. If you get any calls about increased refunds and the person has an HSA, go right to that first.
