You enter it when you enter the boxes from your W-2.  Do not enter it anywhere else.

Go through the Retirement Savings Contribution Credit section.   If you take the credit, TurboTax will upgrade you to Deluxe - that credit on Form 8880 is not included in Free Edition.    Saver's Credit requirements

Ok but I’m getting charge 133 to put my 401k contributions . I’ve put it in the past and was never charged that amount . Do I have to claim it in my taxes  ? I never withdraw it or anything .

Go back to My Info and say you are a student. Then it won't give you the retirement savings credit.  It won't affect anything else.
