    It is normally reflected on your W-2 form as a reduction in your wages reported on line 1. Since your income is reduced by the amount your employer contributed to your retirement plan, you get a tax benefit from the reduction in your taxable income. You don't need to make any additional entry outside of entering your W-2 form in TurboTax.
