2022 New York Health Care Worker's Bonus HWB Tax Exemption

highalert2 — Mon, 23 Feb 2026 09:33:59 GMT

Hello community,

I'm a healthcare professional working in NYC who received the 2022 Health Care Worker's Bonus in 2022.

Our hospital is telling us that this amount is non-taxable on the NY State and NYC City level but the amount was included in Box 16 & 18.

We were told that we would need to file form IT-225 under section S-143: Health care and mental hygiene worker bonuses.

My question is, is TurboTax updated to include this new provision that is new to 2022. (Web or Desktop)

Thanks!

Yes, the TurboTax New York program is updated to allow you to exclude the Healthcare Worker Bonus from your New York state and city income. In the New York interview, on the page for "Changes to Federal Income," click the Start button for "Health care and mental hygiene worker bonuses," then enter the amount of the bonus that was included in your W-2.
