Do I need to enter expense reimbursement from my employer? This includes a vehicle expense allowance and health insurance allowance. If so, where can I enter it?

I do not see the reimbursements on my W-2, however, I do see it on my paystubs. I believe the amount on my pay stubs may include employer contributions to my 401k.

No, you do not need to enter expense reimbursements on your tax return. You just enter your W-2 as it was received. If you are incurring an "expense" and it's being returned to you, this is not income.

I guess maybe I should have said expense allowance. I get a monthly vehicle allowance and health insurance allowance. The health insurance allowance is more than I pay out of pocket for health insurance.
