Hi,
My wife had an HSA account (managed by Alight smart choice) with her employer in 2022 and quit in July 2022.
I can see from the Account details via Alight mobile app that our contributions were $2900 for 2022 and distributions were $1160 for 2022 (this was accumulated by payments made with HSA savings debit card). However Alight does not have a 1099SA issued for me for 2022 on their website. It only has 1099-SA for previous years but none for 2022.
1) Shouldn't have a 1099-SA issued since I had distributions for 2022 from my HSA savings account?
2) Contacting the right person in Alight smart choice has been next to impossible, I have been trying for the past few days. Even though I do not have 1099-SA, can I just the report distribution amount I am seeing in the app and have it included when I file taxes? (take the other details on payer name/fed id number etc from 2021 1099-SA and report the distribution amount from 2022)
3) Since I do not see a 1099-SA from Alight, what happens even if I file my final taxes without recording the 2022 distributions of $1160?
Yes, you should have a 1099-SA since you had distributions during the year.
You can report the distributions as if you had received a 1099-SA, since you have all of the information to do so.
If you didn't report it, and at some point, the company issued the 1099-SA late, your would get an IRS letter.
If you didn't report it and the company also never reported it, nothing would happen. This is not the best approach because you have a responsibility to file your tax return as accurately as you can.
