Can You Make 2017 HSA Contributions for Prior Year?

Yes, you can make Health Savings Account (HSA) contributions for the previous tax year. HSA contributions for 2017 can be made up to the tax filing deadline, which is typically April 15 of the following year.

Contributions made between January 1 and April 15 of the next year can be counted towards the previous tax year if you specify it on your tax return.

If you have an HSA-eligible health insurance plan for the entire tax year, you can contribute the maximum allowed amount for that year.

Absolutely! If you missed making contributions to your Health Savings Account (HSA) for 2017, don't worry. You can still contribute right up to the tax filing deadline, which falls on April 15 of the following year.
