HSA Contribution

I self contribute to my HSA (retired) and got Medicare at 65 in August.  I found I could contribute another $1,400 to the HSA.  I met all other high deductable insurance requirements for HSA eligibility in 2020.  Can I contribute the additional $1.4K in 2021 for my 2020 taxes, similar to the ability that is given for IRA's?   Thanks.

    No, you can not contribute to you HSA once you have Medicare.

     

    This is from the IRS:
