Turbo tax is saying I don't qualify for a 401k tax credit, when in fact I do. How can I enter my 401k contribution numbers on my tax return?

Are you sure you can claim a deduction?

401K contributions are made with pre-tax money, since you don't pay tax on the money contributed, you can't deduct it.

The only retirement contributions that are deducible are contributions to a traditional IRA.

To enter an IRA contribution

1. Sign in to your account.
2. Type IRA contributions into the search box 
3. Select Jump to IRA contributions

Thank you. I had an accountant do my return last few years and did it myself this year, so after further research.. turbo tax is correct, in which I no longer qualified.  So this question has now been answered. Thank you!
