W-2 Information Sheet
 
The following information will be useful when reviewing your W-2 form:
 
Box I WAGES, TIPS, AND OTHER COMPENSATION reflects your reportable income for federal income tax purposes. This figure is calculated by subtracting your total before-tax deductions* from your total gross earnings.
 
Box 3 SOCIAL SECURITY WAGES are your total gross earnings less:
1.  Deductions for health and dental insurance.
2.  Student labor, work study, and graduate assistant payments earned during the academic year.
3.  Plus the 1% contribution UConn pays for AAUP employees who have State retirement.
 
Box 10 DEPENDENT CARE BENEFITS reflect the amount deducted for a dependent care reimbursement account.
 
Box 13 CODE E: Your contributions to a 403(b) plan (tax sheltered annuity)
CODE G: Your contributions to a 457 plan (deferred compensation)
 
Box 14 CODE 414H: Your contributions to retirement
 
*Health insurance, dental insurance, dependent care deductions, 403(b) plan contributions, 457 plan contributions, and retirement contributions are non-taxable. Please see your final check stub from December for year-end deduction totals for health and dental insurance.
