HSA

[jp5215]

My husband and I are both on medicare and we have a dependent, 22 year old son, in college. Can we put money in a HSA and if so, how much?

To qualify for an HSA you must be enrolled in a health insurance plan that imposes high deductibles.  You can use previously contributed funds.  Unfortunately Medicare recipients do not qualify.

If it is your son and you are asking on his behalf he must be enrolled in a  high deductible health insurance plan.
