State tax filing

Medical insurance premiums are deducted from your pre-tax pay on the W2.. This means that you are paying for your medical insurance before any of the federal, state, and other taxes are deducted.

 

Since these are paid with pre-tax dollars, you may not claim these as a medical premium expense.

 

i am not sure what a HLTHDOMPTER is. You might ask your employer. In most cases, the information that your employer lists in Box 14 of your W-2 does not affect your income tax return. In fact, for many Box 14 entries, the IRS does not even provide a place for it to get reported on your return forms. They are reported to you in Box 14 simply for informational purposes.
