Office 2021: The page number of a heading in the table of contents (TOC) appears directly next to it

Try this:

1. Create a new paragraph that's not part of the TOC.
2. Format it with the TOC4 style. Is the rogue tab stop present? If so, delete the tab stop and update the style.
3. Then regenerate the TOC. If the tab stop returns, then it's almost certainly the Jason tab referenced earlier, and you may just have to live with it--Every time you generate the TOC, delete the tab stop and update the style--that should correct all the affected TOC paragraphs.
