A 403(b) is listed as a code of "E" in box 12 of the W-2. 

This reduces the wages in Box 1 of the W-2. These wages are what you pay taxes. 

The 403(b) is already taken into account when the W-2 is entered and does not need to be listed anywhere else in TurboTax. 

A 403(b) plan, also known as a tax-sheltered annuity (TSA) plan, is a retirement plan for certain employees of public schools, employees of certain tax-exempt organizations, and certain ministers. Individual accounts in a 403(b) plan can be any of the following types.
