What does the code "STKOP" in box 14 of the W2 mean? (I live in Washington state.)

The code is next to what appears to be a dollar amount, but I that dollar amount doesn't correlate to anything I can think of.

In the context of a W-2 from a company in Washington state, the code "STKOP" in Box 14 typically stands for Stock Option.  This dollar amount should already included in your total taxable wages in Box 1 (Federal wages), Box 3 (Social Security wages), and Box 5 (Medicare wages). It is listed separately in Box 14 just to show you how much of your total pay came from those stock activities versus your regular salary.
