Correct. Retirement plan contributions reported in box 12 of your W-2 should only be entered on the W-2 screen. Depending on the plan, box 12 will have one of these upper-case letter codes and a contribution amount:
-
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
-
AA: Designated Roth contributions under a section 401(k) plan.
-
BB: Designated Roth contributions under a section 403(b) plan.
-
EE: Designated Roth contributions under governmental section 457(b) plan. This amount does not apply to contributions under a tax-exempt organization section 457(b) plan.
