Deductions & credits
*If* you are in a situation where one person has a job with a pre-tax health care deduction that is done in the style of HSA, *and* the other spouse is the one who is actually providing health insurance for the family (or couple), you won't be able to overcome this problem and you will have to print and file by mail.
This is caused by the fact that TurboTax does not acknowledge that an HSA could exist without a high deductible plan. Hence it will insist on you filling out a form 8889, even though there is nothing to put on it. When you try to not fill in the radio buttons on 8889, TurboTax will not let you e-file. You will have to print your taxes and mail them to the IRS.
