Can You Have an HSA If on Spouse Dental and Has FSA?

Many people may wonder if it's possible to have a Health Savings Account (HSA) while being on their spouse's dental plan and having a Flexible Spending Account (FSA). The good news is that in most cases, you can have an HSA even if you are covered by your spouse's dental insurance and have an FSA. Here's what you need to know:

Having an HSA while on your spouse's dental plan and having an FSA is generally allowed as long as the FSA is a Limited FSA or a Dependent Care FSA. However, if the FSA is a General Purpose FSA, you may not be eligible to contribute to an HSA.

Here are some key points to consider:

• You can have an HSA and be on your spouse's dental plan.
• If your FSA is a Limited FSA or a Dependent Care FSA, you can still have an HSA.
• If your FSA is a General Purpose FSA, you may not be eligible for an HSA.
• Check with your employer or benefits administrator to confirm your eligibility for an HSA.
