Do You Have to Submit Receipts for HSA When You File Your Taxes?

One common question many people have about Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) is whether they need to submit receipts when they file their taxes. The short answer is no, you do not have to submit receipts for your HSA expenses when you file your taxes.

When you contribute to your HSA, you are already receiving a tax benefit by deducting those contributions from your taxable income. The IRS does not require you to submit receipts for your medical expenses that you pay for using your HSA funds when you file your taxes.

It's important to keep in mind that while you do not have to submit receipts for your HSA expenses during tax time, you should still keep all your receipts and records of your medical expenses. Keeping these records is crucial in case you are ever audited by the IRS or need to provide documentation for any reason.
