No. Contributions to your employer-sponsored retirement plan are already pre-tax, so you cannot claim them as a deduction on your tax return. If you
contributed to your employer-sponsored plan, the information was reported on your W-2 in box 12. The code depends on the type of the plan:
-
D: 401(k) plan
-
E: 403(b) plan
-
F: 408(k)(6) plan
-
G: 457(b) plan
-
S: 408(p) salary reduction SIMPLE retirement account
-
H: 501(c)(18)(D) plan
Note that an
Individual Retirement Arrangement (IRA) is a retirement
plan that you set up yourself and
not
an employer-sponsored retirement plan, such
as a 401(k) plan.
