Deductions & credits
My question had nothing to do with a deceased person. Sorry if I wasn't clear. I have a HSA Savings account and am completing form 8889. On the Smart Worksheet I entered on line A, D and G the amount of $2525 which is the amount of my medical distributions for the year. Everything was fine until I was reviewing my 1040 return for filing, an error was indicated because I had no amount entered on line F. I assumed they were asking for the cash balance in my Health Savings account so I entered that amount. The problem arises then, when I continue into the IRS portion of the form. These two numbers have been added together giving me a amount that is larger than my maximum yearly donations. That amount is taxable. This is incorrect and I don't know how to fix it.
