Can I Fund an HSA If I'm Not Working?

If you're wondering whether you can fund a Health Savings Account (HSA) while not working, the answer is yes! Even if you are unemployed, you can still contribute to an HSA as long as you meet certain requirements.

• You must be enrolled in a high-deductible health plan (HDHP) to qualify for an HSA
• You can contribute to an HSA on your own, through individual contributions, or contributions from a family member
• If you have earned income from freelance work or investments, you can use that money to fund your HSA
• Even if you're not working, you can still use the funds in your HSA to pay for qualified medical expenses tax-free

So, whether you're between jobs, taking a break from work, or retired, you can still take advantage of the benefits of an HSA. Start saving for your healthcare expenses today!
