Is the HSA contribution amount already deducted from the w2 box 1 federal wages? (If not how do I deduct it from my total taxable income?)
Is the additional 0.9% medicare tax also already deducted from w2 box 1?
Are IRA and 401k contributions also already deducted from w2 box 1?
Thanks.

1. HSA contributions (both employer and employee) are already deducted from wages in box 1 of form W-2. They are reported in box 12 with code W. You do not need to deduct them again on your tax return.
2. The additional Medicare tax of 0.9% for wages over $200,000 is included in box 6. Medicare wages are not deducted from box 1 as Medicare tax is levied on wages without limit.
3. 401(k) contributions are deducted from box 1 and reported in box 12 with code D. IRA contributions do not appear on form W-2. They have to be reported separately in TurboTax.
