Question

AW-2 Box 12 code W entry disappears

After I enter my W-2 Box 12 code C, D, DD and W data the C and W disappears after I go through my return. On the HSA entry it says that there are no contributions because box 12 was completed. When I return to box 12 the Code w data is no longer there (along with code c). I even tried saving immediately after entering the data.

Why does this happen?

    This is a very strange description. When you say that these items "disappear", you mean that when you return to the W-2, the numbers (and some of the letters) are no longer there?

     

    Did you auto import the W-2? If so, please delete it and type it in by hand.

    I agree it is very strange. I entered my W-2 data by hand. I enter each of the 4 codes C, D, DD and W and their corresponding amounts. I see all 4 lines of entries and then I continue past that section and when I go back C and W are missing. The reason I noticed it was when I was working on the HSA section it was not showing any contributions. When I clicked on the info icon it said that it does not show a contribution because Box 12 needs to completed. When I go back to Box 12 there are only 2 entries D and DD. I can reenter but they don't stay after going past that screen.

    Hmpf. Are you using Online or CD/download? If the latter, is it Windows or Mac?
