Do amounts listed under Box 1 on my W-2 need to be entered under Other Wage Adjustments - W-2 for a NJ State return, such as GTL, Misc. Non Tax Camp & Other Cafe 125?

The following amounts are listed Box 1: Plus GTL (C-Box 12), Less Misc. Non Taxable Comp, Less 403(b) (E-Box 12), Less 414(h) and Less Other Cafe 125.

Enter your W-2 exactly as it is shown, including Box 12 entries. The info will flow into your New Jersey return correctly. 

 

If part of your Box 1 Wages are excludable in New Jersey for a particular state issue that is not shown on your W-2, you will be asked about that in your New Jersey State interview.
