Question

I moved from CA in April 2018 to TX. In TX I have an HSA and no state income tax. CA wants to tax my HSA contributions that I made in TX. Please help.

California doesn't tax your HSA, but it is included to determine CA part-year tax. California pretends that all of your income is taxable in California by California rules. Since they do not allow a deduction for an HSA, the HSA is included in their pretend calculation. The tax is calculated, and then prorated to the percentage of income earned while a CA resident. Thus, your HSA is not taxed, but it is considered in your CA tax formula.
