For Box 14 (other) on my W-2, I have DEN, MED, and VIS. What category do I choose for each when filling out taxes? I don't see anything similar. Other (not classified)?

Employers can put just about anything in box 14; it's a catch-all for items that don't have their own dedicated box on the W-2.

 

In TurboTax, enter the description from your W-2's box 14 on the first field in the row. Enter the dollar amount and select the correct tax category that goes with that description.

If none of the categories apply, scroll to the bottom of the list and choose Other–not on above list. Don’t worry. We'll figure out if it impacts your return or not. If we need more information, we'll ask you.

 

The entries in box 14 or your W-2 are just letting you know how much of your income was deducted for your health benefits.
