You enter both of the codes and the amounts as shown on your W-2 in box 12.

 

W—Employer contributions (including amounts the employee elected to contribute using a section 125 (cafeteria) plan) to your health savings account. Report on Form 8889, Health Savings Accounts (HSAs)

 

DD—Cost of employer-sponsored health coverage. The amount reported with code DD is not taxable

When you enter the code W the program will require you to upgrade to Deluxe to complete the needed 8889 section.
