Type of Plan

In the program, you will be asked to first choose the type of plan: Self-only or Family

1. If you were covered, or considered covered, by a self-only HDHP and a family HDHP at different times during the year, check the box for the plan that was in effect for a longer period.
2. If you were covered by both a self-only HDHP and a family HDHP at the same time, you are treated as having family coverage during that period.
3. . If, on the first day of the last month of your tax year (December 1 for most taxpayers), you had family coverage, check the “family” box.

Number of months during the tax year that were an eligible individual.

Your eligibility is based on your coverage status on the first day of the month.

1. Use the family coverage amount if you or your spouse had an HDHP with
   family coverage. Disregard any plan with self-only coverage.
2. If you are eligible to contribute to an HSA on the first day of the last month of your tax
   year, you are considered eligible for the entire year, provided you stay enrolled in an HSA
   qualifying HDHP. For example, you are eligible to contribute to an HSA by December 1, 2022
   and stay eligible through December 31, 2023.

Qualified HSA Funding Distributions from IRA or ROTH IRA - Pulls to 8889 Line 10, Form 8889

A distribution from your traditional IRA or Roth IRA to your HSA in a direct trustee-to-trustee transfer is called an HSA funding distribution. These funds are not being distributed from your HSA, but rather are being distributed from your IRA and contributed to your HSA.

• The distribution reduces the amount that can be contributed to your HSA by you and from other
  sources (including employer contributions).
• The qualified HSA funding distribution is not included in your income, it is not deductible.
• You can make only one qualified HSA funding distribution during your lifetime. See the 8889 instructions for exceptions and more information.
