Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Texas does not require that you file an income tax return.  Start there.  If you have attached a return for Texas for individual income taxes you should delete and file the Federal return only.

 

Nine states — Alaska, Florida, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington and Wyoming — have no income taxes. New Hampshire, however, taxes interest and dividends, according to the Tax Foundation. It has passed legislation to begin phasing out that tax starting in 2024 and ending in 2027.

 

Since you were covered, with health insurance,  for the entire year, try answering the question with a full year answer.  It is somehow translating the switching of coverage as a break in coverage.  Just say you were covered from January 1 2021 through December 31, 2021.

 

TurboTax has to ask that question because of a very complicated rule called the "last-month rule." If you contributed to an HSA in 2021, and you had an HDHP on December 1, 2021, but not for the entire year, under certain circumstances you might have to report additional income on your 2021 tax return.
