Yes, it's possible that something on your W-2 is causing TurboTax to think you have an HSA. Specifically, Box 12 on your W-2 might contain code "W", which indicates employer contributions to a Health Savings Account (HSA). This code includes both employer and employee pre-tax contributions made through payroll deductions.

 

Sure! Here are the steps to check your W-2 for HSA information in TurboTax:

TurboTax Online

  1. Open your return: Sign in and go to your return.
  2. Go to Income: Navigate to the "Income" section.
  3. Select Wages and Salaries: Click on "Wages and Salaries" to view your W-2 information.
  4. Locate Box 12: Find Box 12 on your W-2 form.
  5. Check for Code "W": Look for code "W" in Box 12. This code indicates employer contributions to a Health Savings Account (HSA).

Request a Corrected W-2

If there were incorrect HSA contributions reported on your W-2, you should request a corrected W-2 from your employer
