    Box 14 - Sec125. Should I enter tax return?
    Hello,

    I have an entry in Box 14 on my W2 for Sec125. I think it is Health Insurance for my spouse which I added in March 2007.
    I am however not sure if I should add that while filing my returns? How will that affect my total refund?
    I am using Taxact online filing and have an entry for Box 14 but it states it as Railroad taxes. I don't think it is that.

    BTW: I am married filing jointly with my spouse. I am the only earning partner for last year. I am on H1 and my spouse on EAD.

    Looking forward to your reply. Much appreciated.

    You do NOT add it to your return. The Sec125 refers to the IRC section which allows you to pay health insurance premiums with pre-tax dollars.

    Just ignore it; it is NOT relevant to your efiled reurn.
