Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Yes, if you had an excess HSA contribution on your 2023 tax return, you had until April 15, 2024 to withdraw it. ‌Your excess HSA contribution would have generated a Form 5329, and the excess would be shown on line 48.

If you have an excess showing on your 2024 return, you can tell TurboTax that you will withdraw it by April 15, 2025. You will have to contact your HSA provider to make the withdrawal on time. 

Make sure to answer "No" to the question "Did you overfund your HSA in 2023" because you have withdrawn it.

If your HSA is overfunded, you will indicate this on the TurboTax Screen that says, "You may want to withdraw money from your HSA".

You can select the option "Ok. I'll Withdraw $XXX excess contribution by April 15, 2025"

To revisit your HSA screen in TurboTax to make sure your excess HSA contribution was not due to an entry error, you can:

1. Click on the search icon in the upper right corner of your TurboTax screen
2. Type "HSA" in the search box
3. Click on the link "Jump to HSA"
4. Answer the questions until you get to the screen "Let's enter your HSA Contribution"
5. Make sure you did not accidently enter an amount on this screen that was already reported in Box 12 of your Form W-2. This will double your total contribution amount.
6. Continue through your TurboTax screens and make sure all questions were correctly answered.
7. As per the above, if you removed the excess contribution from 2023 or did not have one answer "No" to "Did you overfund your HSA in 2023?"
