I contribute $3350 pre-tax money to my HSA. My employer contributes $0. Nothing was withdrawn from my HSA. This amount shows on my W-2 line 12b as w $3350.
Turbotax fills out form 8889 apparently wrong:
Line 2: HSA contributions you mode for 2016: $0. -- why is this $0 when the contributions were made by me (pre-tax)?
Line 12 is showing my $3350 as excess employer contributions - but they were made by me, not my employer, and they were not excess - they were within the limits?
Net result - the $3350 that I contributed pre-tax to my HSA is now being listed on line 21 of my 1040 as "other income" and I'm paying tax on it? How did Turbotax take my pre-tax HSA contribution and make it taxable "other income"?
