The sentence "See instructions for box 12" is intended for your employer, not you. There are many options for box 12, and the IRS wants your employer to read and understand them before completing your W-2.

You do not need to worry about this; just enter the codes and dollar amounts (if any) from the W-2 into TurboTax as written.
