Check your W2 and see if in Box 12 you have a Code W with a figure in it. This is the code that your employer would use if they were depositing HSA money in your account. I would make sure the entries that you made into TurboTax are correct for the Line 12 of your W2.

 

You can attempt to delete Form 8889, Health Savings Accounts, from your return:

  • In the left-hand black menu, choose Tax Tools then Tools.
  •  Click on Delete a Form from the window that pops up.
  •  You should now see the Review Form List. Scroll down the list and click Delete on Form 8889.
  • You may get a pop up telling you additional worksheets and forms are being deleted. Approve and click delete.
  • You should come back to the Review Form List. Scroll to the bottom and click Continue with My Return.
