Education

Hi,

My tuition reimbursement is not included in the figure in Box 1 but it is shown as "Misc. Non Taxable Comp" in the summary section (that light blue area on the top right section of the page). 

It is shown like this:

 

                                                               Wages,Tips, other Compensation (Box 1 of W-2)

 

Gross Pay                                             45,000

Less (Misc. Non Taxable Comp).       1,000

Less ( 414(h) )                                        3,000

Less (Other Cafe 125)                          2,500

 

Reported W-2 Wages                        38,500 (which is also the amount in Box 1)

 

And Turbo Tax says, under the Scholarships/Grants (for all schools) section:

 

Did You Receive a Scholarship or Grant in 2020?

 

-Fellowship

-Employer-provided assistance

-Veteran education benefits

-Other tax-free assistance

 

Yes

No

 

And when I choose "NO", nothing happens but when I choose "YES", then it says:

 

Enter the amount you received.Don't include amounts already listed on a W-2 or other tax form.

 

Other Scholarships/Grants/Fellowships:  _______

Veterans' Education Benefits or certain Indian Tribal Payments:  _______

Employer-Provided Assistance:  _______

 

Now, do include the $1,000 above next to "Employer-provided assistance" if I answered "YES" to the first question?

 

Thanks.
