State tax filing
Thank you for this information. It was very helpful. Unfortunately, on the 8889 form, TurboTax does not like it that I have overridden the 9A entry...since my employer reported the COMBINED amount of HSA contributions (mine and my employer's) in box 12 of the W-2 (and NOT just my employer's contribution), I have replaced that value with $1,000. (This 9A entry is asking for "the employer contributions reported in Box 12 of Form W-2 (code W)".) Every time I run an error check TurboTax tells met that it doesn't like it that I have accurately reflected my employer's contribution to my HSA on the 8889 form. It tells me "Form 8889-T: Line 9-a should not be overridden and changed for Electronic Filing. Using an override can prevent..." So, how do I handle this?
