Based on hours of research and a conversation with another TT expert several days ago and my previous employer, the Employer Amount Contributed to an HSA is not taxable and therefore is not to be entered as taxable income. So it makes no sense to me to enter it as Other Taxable Income. And to report that I made the contribution just doesn't sit well with me because it is untrue. If it had been reported on a W2 in box 12, it would have had a code W. IRS instructions for that code say to report the amt on form 8889 Health Savings Accounts under Employer Contributions. Doing this results in the same $220 increase in federal tax due so I guess I'm just stuck with this outcome. It stinks that I'm being taxed for using the HSA $ for qualified expenses, but I guess that's just what it is. Thank you again.
