Generally withholdings for 401k's are tax deductible, and is already calculated on your W-2. Depending on your income level, you may receive a nonrefundable saver's credit for your retirement contributions.

What's the difference between Roth and a 401K?

The difference between a Roth 401k and a regular 401k is that the Roth 401K is a after-tax contribution and the regular 401K is a pre-tax contribution.
