Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Unfortunately that help article is not very helpful. Both of these scenarios in the help article apply to my W2: "I received a W-2 and Box 12 has code II", and "I received a W-2 with zero in Box 1 and amounts in Box 3 and Box 5".  I made Roth contributions based on the earned income, so I have to add the income.

 

In the first scenario and set of instructions I'm concerned it'll be rejected by IRS for having $0.00 in box 1. The second scenario would have me just add the amounts as other income and tag them as medicare waiver payments, but I'd have to add it in the area for income I received without a W2, and I have a W2 for it. 

 

Which set of the scenario steps should I follow?
