HSA form 8889 personal contribution

flightsave90 — Thu, 05 Feb 2026 19:32:06 GMT

I am trying to input my personal contributions to my HSA. This was after tax and after payroll but I cannot get to form 8889 to input it. Does anyone know a work around to input personal contributions after-tax to their HSA? I have gone through the HSA prompts 3-4 times and I do not see a way to show that I made personal contributions separate from an employer.

In the HSA interview you get a question that asks "Did you put money into an HSA in 2025?" If you answer Yes, the next screen is what's shown in the screen shot below, which has a place to enter personal contributions.

Thank you for the response and screenshot. I reworked my HSA interview but still did not have a screen asking if I contributed to my own HSA. I may need to remove the form and work it again.

In the search bar type "Form 8889" and then click the "Jump To" button.

Once there go through the interview steps. You should see the question about contributions quite quickly.
