Instructions for what exactly?   No one can see your screen.

If you are referring to box 12 of a W-2 form ... see instructions means "turn the form over and read the back" to see where the info in box 12 is to go.  But since you are using the TT program all you need to do is enter any box 12 codes and amounts as printed on the form.  If you have nothing in any of the boxes then move on.

Every IRS form has an accompanying set of instructions. For example, you can Google Form 2441 and you can see:
