Can I add IRC 414H on my Federal form as a medical deduction.  I know it is taxable in NYS.

    IRC 414(h) is not a medical expense. It's a pension plan. It is already excluded from your federal wages in box 1 of your W-2. You can't deduct it again.

    It is taxable in NYS. You should see the program moved it from box 14 of your w2 to the NY IT-201, line21.

    rjs is correct that you can't take a deduction on dollars that are not taxed by the federal for the federal return.
