Deductions & credits
No, simply
report the expenses you paid in 2016 for 2016 on Form 8889. When you do the 2017 tax return in 2018, you
will report the medical expenses from your 2017 distribution then.
Even
if you had to change health insurance and no longer have an HDHP
(High-Deductible Health Plan, which are the only plans that are HSA eligible),
you still may pay for qualified unreimbursed medical expenses with your HSA
funds. If this is your situation,
however, do not make any additional
contributions this year as this would be penalized. (You can, however, make contributions until
April 18, 2017 for the 2016 tax year, if you have not reached your contribution
limit).
