Can I Contribute to HSA After Enrollment Period in November?

Yes, you can contribute to your HSA after the enrollment period in November. HSA contributions can be made at any time during the year, regardless of when you enroll in a high deductible health plan (HDHP).

Contributions to an HSA have annual limits set by the IRS, so it’s essential to keep track of your contributions to ensure you stay within the allowed limits. For 2021, the contribution limits are $3,600 for individuals and $7,200 for families.

Here are some key points to remember about contributing to your HSA:

• Contributions can be made by you, your employer, or both.
• Contributions made by your employer are not included in your taxable income.
• You can make contributions through payroll deductions or directly into your HSA account.
• If you are 55 or older, you can make an additional catch-up contribution of $1,000 per year.

It’s important to consult with a tax advisor or financial planner to understand the rules and benefits of contributing to an HSA. By contributing to your HSA, you can save for medical expenses tax-free and build a financial safety net for future healthcare needs.

Absolutely! You have the flexibility to contribute to your Health Savings Account (HSA) even after the enrollment period in November ends. The beauty of an HSA is that contributions are allowed throughout the year, irrespective of when you started your high deductible health plan (HDHP).
