When no longer employed and your employer continues to contribute to an HSA on your behalf, you may or may not receive a W2. However, the contributions belong on line 9 of the Form 8889 all the same. If you didn't get the W2, do the following in Turbo Tax:
This will complete the Form 8889 and report the contributions. You won't have a deduction, but you will properly report.
I am a federal retiree (not on Medicare) who has an HSA that receives premium pass through contributions (funded mostly by my former employer, the federal government) plus my own contributions. I successfully used this method to report the government contributions to the HSA. In my case, this was important since I am trying to clean up a minor amount of prior year excess contributions and Turbo Tax would not correctly identify the fact that I had excess contributions to withdraw without me figuring out how to input employer contributions that did not originate from a W-2. So thanks for the post...this worked for me.
