Taxpayers use Form 8853 to:

  • Report Archer MSA contributions (including employer contributions.
  • Figure your Archer MSA deduction.
  • Report distributions from Archer MSAs or Medicare Advantage MSAs.
  • Report taxable payments from long-term care (LTC) insurance contracts.
  • Report taxable accelerated death benefits from a life insurance policy.

Which part of Form 8853 are you trying to adjust?
