Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Unfortunately, you cannot e-file with a blank box 1 on a Form W2.
Since this is the only W2 you have from this Employer, you will need to report the HSA employer contribution separately in order to e-file your return.
Please follow these steps to get around this issue:
1) Delete the Form W2
2) Walk through the HSA interview again (search hsa and click the jump-to link)
3) When you get to the question "Did your employer tell you about any other contributions?, select "Yes"
4) Enter $1,200 in the box "Employer and payroll contributions not reported in Box 12 of your W-2
Doing this will get the amount reported properly on your Form 8889 line 9, which is exactly the same result as if you entered the W2.
