Wher do i enter my group insurance contributions?

A group term life insurance policy is a policy where the only amounts payable by the insurer are policy dividends, experience rating refunds, and amounts payable on the death or disability of an employee or former employee.

Your employer calculates the taxable benefit and reports it on a T4 slip for current employees or on a T4A slip for former employees.

For more information on the calculation, contact the payer.

Report on line 10400 of your return the amount shown in box 119 of your T4A slips. 

When you enter the amount into Box 119 in TurboTax, it will automatically put it on Line 10400 for you.
