Entering HSA Contributions?

My employer contributed $3,300 to my HSA while I contributed $1,000 (auto deduct from my paycheck). On the "Let's enter your HSA contribution" page there are two questions, 1) What's in Box 12 of W-2 from your 2025 employer and payroll contributions? 2) Contributions I made personally (not through your employer)? Because I imported my W2, it auto populated $4,300 to the first box.  Is that correct? Also, what is the 2nd question asking, did I personal add more money to HSA without having my employer deduct from paycheck? Do I need edit the 1st box to be $3,300 (doesn't seem to allow editing) and then add $1000 to the second box? Thanks

Leave it the way it is - it is correct; no edits needed :).   You had a total of $4300 and they were all on your W-2, so leave the second box blank.  And yes, if you made contributions OUTSIDE of payroll, they would be entered there.     Your contributions and your employer contributions are lumped together with a code W in box 12.   TurboTax captured all of the necessary information from the code W.
