Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Hi John, thanks for the reply. I did all of that even before I posted my first discussion. Let me show you how the TT software works.
So I went back and deleted the W2.
Then I went into the deductions section and went into medical. When you get to the section where you put in your contributions, you cannot enter your employer contribution.
The only way to do it is through a W2. I've taken a screen shot below of this, and clicked on the (Box 12 of your W-2) and then highlighted in red the note it says about employer contributions. The reson it is zero now and not 1,000 is because I deleted the W2. So then if you try to work around it and go into form 8889 as shown further below, you cannot add the info from your employer.
So if you try to work around and enter the info manually in form 8889, the section(line 9) for the employer info is blocked out. Section 9; line A, C, F and then finally line 9 cannot be manually entered.
Are you aware of a different tax preparation software that will allow you to work around this? Very frustrating.
Regards
