Calculate HSA Net Capital Gain or Loss, for CA tax purposes?

HealthEquity provides a Year End Statement, which has a section for "Net Investment Gains or (Losses) during 2020". Anyone knows whether that's the same as Capital Gains that we need to report or unrealized gains/losses (which we don't need to report)? - trying to understand where to look for Capital gains

 

(Tried to check with HealthEquity, but the agent does not have any idea.)

 

Thank you!

California taxes any realized capital gain or distribution in the HSA account. Basically it treats the HSA as es regular investment account.

@sese same problem, I believe the number reported on the website includes unrealized gain. trying to do math on the realized part.

I figured it out. For all the health equity user out there. PSA, click this button do download the actual buy/sell log. Then calculated the Realized capital gain from there.

I talked to a HSA rep who showed me a calculator for capital gain! You just have to download that report and upload it to the calculator. It shows you dividend, short term, and long term. Hopefully this helps others:
