Deductions & credits

Thank you very much for the answer.  I have a little bit more information on this topic.

 

I was further informed by my employer that the health insurance premium is considered "contributions through a cafeteria plan".  When I read the text on Form 8889 #2, I see the following:

 

HSA contributions you made for 2022 (or those made on your behalf), including those made by the
unextended due date of your tax return that were for 2022. Do not include employer contributions,
contributions through a cafeteria plan, or rollovers. See instructions

 

If what my employer says is true, then how to I use TurboTax to consider Box 12b of my W2 to be "contributions through a cafeteria plan" ?

 

No matter what I do, TurboTax considers this money part of an HSA and fills out form 8889 incorrectly.  My understanding is that I shouldn't be including a form 8889 at all.
