I deposited 2k into my IRA by accident instead of brokerage account in Nov 2012. when i realized the mistake few months (3) later I took the money out in March of 2013. Now my brokerage IRA account shows distribution of that 2k and turbox tax is showing I owe 200 dollars tax on that distribution.. is there a legal way to avoid that? since it was an honest mistake and I had already paid tax on that money because I had it transferred from my checking account into my IRA which should have been to Brokerage.

IRA IRA Contribution IRA- Early or Late Distribution
