Should post-tax 401k contributions show up on my W2? (I only did post-tax contributions, and got pre-tax gains)

My accountant says yes, but my company’s payroll team says no.

Any advice much appreciated.

Does your company take it from your paycheck?

STA1 yes. What’s the difference?

If your employer is deducting it I’d expect it on my w2. If they aren’t then it wouldn’t be on your W2

I don't think so. Post-tax contributions don't lower your taxable income. Also how do you have a pre-tax gain in a post-tax account?

Should be in box 12

I went through two rounds of interviews for
a job that the posting stated $36.66 per
hour (FP&A Analyst)…the company
recruiter had told me in the initial call the
pay could be 32-36 because of the other
benefits. If I do get a job offer what range
should I try for? I was really hoping to get
around the 36-40 but now I feel like they
may try to offer lower than what was
posted. Also there was no range but the
average for this position is upper 70s-90k.
Thanks for any help!
