If Tips being reported in box 14 and not box 7, they are included in my box 1 amount. system is not recognizing them in box 14 and won’t allow for the write off.

Box 14 is informational and is informing me the the tip amount, my job qualifies by IRS Guidelines. It’s an error in the TurboTax system, only recognizes box 7

If the tip total is not reported in Box 7 because you are a high earner, you can still claim the full amount if you reported that full amount to your employer on Form 4070 and it is included in Box 1 of your W-2.

For Tax Year 2025, the IRS had not updated Form W-2 and box 7 only reports SOCIAL SECURITY tips. 

Schedule 1-A, used to claim the "No Tax on Tips" deduction also is not ready.

I suggest you wait until the IRS addresses this situation, the Forms and Schedules involved, and provides guidance on how to report. 

It isn't a TurboTax error, it just has not been resolved by the IRS yet. 

Here is a link to an IRS article on how to handle the tip situation for tax Year 2025.
