When asked if we contributed to an IRA, is this the same as the numbers in box 12?

I entered the amounts in box 12 but when it ask if we have contributed to an IRA, do I use these numbers or are they already accounted for?

You will not re-enter the contributions that were reported in box 12 of your w-2 form. These contributions will automatically be transferred over.
