Box 14  s125 is for the amount of premiums that you paid tax free under an employer's Section 125  (or Cafeteria) benefits plan. It does not reduce your refund.

But it does reduce your refund on your State taxes. At least for NJ.  Pls confirm or correct. Thx.

Yes, contributions to section 125 cafeteria plans are not deductible in New Jersey. Since these amounts were removed from your federal income, they have to be added back to New Jersey income.
