You said, "I enter the amount from 5498-SA form $1431" right under the discussion of how to enter your HSA contributions.

 

HSA contributions sent directly to the HSA custodian are deducted on line 13 (Schedule 1, 1040). They are different from the "employer" contributions which are the code W amount in box 12 of your W-2, because the code W amount is removed from Wages in boxes 1, 3, and 5 when the HSA is printed. But since your personal contributions don't go through your employer, they have to be deducted separately.

 

Or are you going to tell me that you didn't make a personal contribution of $1,431 to your HSA, and that this amount was in a different box than box 2 on the 5498-SA?
