Where on the tax return do you put the flex spending amount?

I could not figure out where to plug in the flex spending amount on my tax return. It should be deducted from my income.

posted

You don't enter the Flex Spending amount into TurobTax. The Flex Spending amount is deducted from your W-2 Box 1 Wages, Tips, Other Compensation amount, that is reported by your employer.

Part of a Flex Spending amount could be Dependent Care Benefits. They are reflected on your W-2 Box 10.

How do I see details of the tax computation in my return? I.e., how the amount on Line 16 of 1040 form is calculated? Why am I not given that information with my return?
