I also contributed more than required, talk to your brokerage and withdraw (need to submit a form) before tax day. otherwise there will be x% palenty when filling tax.

Ask your tax accountant and the brokerage customer service department. They may have a solution. Google of course is always the first stop.
If you don’t know the answer you don’t need to post anything.
Request to withdraw the amount before you file the taxes. Or else you will be penalized and you have to pay a fine.
How do you recharacterize? This is opened as roth ira!! Most brokerages (I can't speak for all) will recommend you draw the amount, but you have got to speak with them.
The above advice is pretty misinformed. You want to recharacterize as a traditional IRA contribution. And then convert to Roth IRA. Moving forward you should be contributing any add to al IRA funds as tIRA and immediately converting.
BoA1 IF they don’t have any pretax IRA assets already. If they do it’s going to be a mess
withdrawing is one option. the other option, as someone suggested, is to 'recharacterize.' you open a traditional IRA account, ask your brokerage provider to recharacterize and move the money to tIRA, do not invest there but leave it in basic money market or cash, let it sit there for a few days, and then simply transfer ALL of it back to your roth IRA account. you just did a backdoor roth IRA yourself!
make sure you don't leave anything back in tIRA account (avoiding pro rata), leave the tIRA account open with zero balance, and use the same account next year for another backdoor. next time simply send the post tax funds straight to tIRA, and immediately transfer over to roth.
