Do I list my FSA (federal savings account) as an HSA for tax purposes?

Can I list an FSA as an HSA?

No. Your federal Flexible Spending Account is an FSA, not an HSA. While there are some similarities between the two (e.g. they both allow you to pay medical expenses with pre-tax earnings) there are very different. An FSA cannot be treated as an HSA on your tax return.
