This is how you enter your contribution to your HSA outside of payroll:

 

  1. In TurboTax Online, open your return
  2. Click on Search (magnifying glass icon) at the top right of your screen
  3. In the Search box, enter HSA and click Enter
  4. In the search result box, click on Go to HSA
  5. TurboTax will take you directly to the HSA section
  6. On the next page titled Select the health-related accounts you had in 2025, check Health Savings Account (HSA) and click Continue
  7. On the next page titled 1099-SA Summary, click Continue
  8. You will then have a page titled Let's enter your HSA contributions with a box to enter your HSA contributions made outside of payroll (see screenshot)

I was told by tech support that they made a software update on March 17th that removed this input box.  The HSA section now shows  the following:

 
 

Then Questions:

NO, I did not use my HSA to pay for any expenses in 2025.  

YES, I was covered by a HDHP

 

Then then next option box

This is where I expect to answer I made direct contributions, but that is not there.  Im told they removed this.

 

I did receive a 5498 -SA from my HSA administrator, which shows my 2025 direct contribution.   

Seems from tech support, I can't enter this anymore.

The instructions of @MinhT1 are correct.  Or you may follow the steps below.

 

In TurboTax Online, return to HSA contributions as follows: 

 

  1. Down the left side of the screen, click on Federal.
  2. Down the left side of the screen, click on Deductions and credits.
  3. Click the down arrow to the right of Medical.
  4. Click to the right of HSA, MSA Contributions.
  5. Be sure to check the box that you have an HSA account.
  6. At the screen Let's enter your HSA contributions, the second entry box allows you to report contributions personally made.

I greatly appreciate the guidance.  I followed these instructions.  Federal/deductions/HSA.  when I get to the HSA section there is no box to enter my contributions.  I been through this a dozen times and even 3-4 times with turbotax tech support.  They said they changed their software March 17.  Below is the screen, I get to.  But none of these apply.  Help please.   There must be a new way to input this info. Screenshot 2026-03-23 171524.png

here is what tech support point me too.  it under their HSA instructions.  I have a 5498-SA that shows my contribution.  Turbotax says it isn't entered.  But my contribution should be a reduction from my income?

Yes, your direct contribution to your HSA is a tax deduction.  So you should be able to enter it as part of your return.  

 

It appears that you are using TurboTax Online to prepare your return.  I just tested a scenario for entering a personal contribution to an HSA using TurboTax Online Deluxe and the correct input screens did come up.  

 

Please try using a different browser and/or clearing your cache and cookies.  Sometimes this can help.  

 

I believe that support told you that the input was removed with a recent update, even though that makes no sense to remove an input screen that can be required for certain tax returns.  

 

As a last resort, if this cannot be resolved, you can use your online tax data file and import it to a desktop version of TurboTax where the input can be entered directly on the tax form if necessary.  Here is a TurboTax help article to describe the process:

 

How do I switch from TurboTax Online to TurboTax Desktop?
