Retirement tax questions

Box 12 letter code of W is only for Employer contributions to Health Savings Accounts. Code D is for retirement plans, such as a 401k.

Contact your employer payroll department if you believe there may be a mistake on your W-2 codes. If so, they would need to correct the form and send to IRS.
