Deductions & credits

HSA, or Health Savings Accounts, contributions are generally pulled pre-tax but you will need to reconcile that distributions were used for qualified medical expenses or they will be converted back to taxable income. You should have received a Form 1099-SA that shows the distributions for qualified medical expenses

 

To enter your Form 1099-SA go to the Deductions and Credits section, from the menu on the left. 

  1. Scroll down to the Medical section and click on Show More
  2. Then select Start or Revisit for HSA, MSA Contributions
  3. It will ask questions about your HSA and prompt you to enter your Form 1099-SA

 

After this section is reconciled, the contributions in your HSA should remain pretax. 

If the contributions were more than was allowed for the type of account and health insurance policy, TurboTax may advise you to withdraw excess contributions before they incur a penalty.
