Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Do you have an amount in box 14?  If you are not a NY public employee, enter your Description, amount, then "Other" as the category.  If you are working for a private company with a retirement plan, in box 12 you should see a D, E, or G then the amount contributed in 2020.  

 

You are correct, these amount would not be taxable and should decrease your box 1 wages amount.
