Retirement tax questions
As I replied to another one of your posts, this is a design decision. If you will look here, year by year, TurboTax lists features that are not supported.
For 2023, you will see on page 3 #4, the following: "4. Roth to Health Savings Account: The program does not support trustee-to-trustee transfers from a Roth IRA to a Health Savings Account".
So, as you see, this is not a design oversight, but a deliberate choice.
I do not know why this choice was made, but it usually has to do with the lack of demand - in this case, it really doesn't make sense to do a transfer from a Roth IRA to an HSA. You could do it manually or if you wanted to do it taxable Roth IRA amount to HSA for the tax benefit, you would have to write a lot of coding to do it right and would interest few people.
I don't know the reason this time, but as a former tax programmer, you have to draw the line somewhere.
We will list this as a potential enhance for next year.
