Deductions & credits

READ that answer again ... the HSA was not included in boxes 1, 3 & 5 ... it was only entered in box 12 as a code W.   For the 401K only box 1 is reduced and not 3 & 5.   If you don't understand the W-2 ask the employer to explain it to you before you do something incorrect on the return. 

 

 

ALL contributions the HSA thru the payroll system (both employee and employer) are listed on the W-2 box 12 code W  ... do NOT try to enter them anywhere else in the program or the IRS will send you an audit letter later.
