Deductions & credits

If all of your contributions were reported on your W-2, do NOT enter an additional contribution in that HSA section.   Usually, your HSA contribution is reported in box 12 of your W-2 with the code W (Company Contributions to Health Savings Account). TurboTax automatically records this amount in the 1099-SA, HSA, MSA section.

 

Code W reports the combined HSA contributions from you and your employer. So if you contributed $1,500 to your HSA and your employer matched it dollar for dollar, box 12 on your W-2 would show $3,000 with a code W.    If you entered an additional contribution in that section, go back and delete it.  

 

Why am I showing an excess HSA contribution?
