HSA contributions from husbands employer to my HSA

My husband's previous employer seeds my HSA (he is on Medicare so does not have an HSA).  This is triggering a taxable excess contribution in Turbo Tax for his HSA even tho he doesn't have one.  I enter that he doesn't have one but it keeps adding it.  How do I over-ride this in Turbo Tax?

HSA contributions from husbands employer to my HSA

That's probably illegal.  To the best of my knowledge, your husband's former employer can give him certain benefits, or could pay him a cash stipend that would be taxable, but can't give you a tax-free benefit.  

 

How is the contribution being reported.  Does your husband get a W-2 from his former employer?

 

Are you enrolled in a qualifying HDHP and have no other medical coverage, so you are eligible to make HSA contributions?
