Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I don't understand the part that says, "you may want to report it" My box 5 is more than box 1/box 2, I entered my information and it reduced my tax return almost $800. So I may want to report it because it "may be treated as taxable income"? If I don't have to report it, and reporting it lowers my projected tax return, then why should I report it?
