I was out on maternity leave for part of 2019. My "Family paid leave" amount is listed on line 14 of my W2.Do I check the box in Turbotax that says "I earned all or part of this income as paid family leave? Line 14 on the W2 states PFL and lists an amount, Turbotax says it does not recognize PFL but don't worry,employers can put whatever they want in this box. If I check the box that says " I earned all or part of my income as "Paid family leave", I get a much larger California state refund.
