It's a required question. Box M means that you are a former employee and received more that 50,000 of life insurance coverage, which is more than what the IRS will allow your former employer to cover pre-tax or untaxed. Any premiums for coverage amounts above 50,000 must be included in taxable income and subject to either Social Security/Medicare payment or Railroad Retirement payments. If your job is not associated with the Railroad, you may leave that box blank.
