Deductions & credits

Were you able to find an answer to that variation on the question?

 

In particular, I am in that situation described where my fiancée has medical debt she incurred long after I opened my account, but prior to our marriage. She has not yet paid the bills for it (and insurance denied most of her claims). Can I use my HSA balance to pay these bills after our marriage?

 

I see 2 similar questions answered answers here, but different. Together they seem to me to imply that the important dates for it are that paying the bills occurs after the wedding, but that incurring the bills occurs after the account was opened. Thus seeming to imply that I can legally use the HSA to reimburse for any portion of the bills paid after our wedding date?
