How Much is the One Time Deposit to an HSA from an IRA When You Are Retired?

When you are retired, you can make a one-time deposit from your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) to a Health Savings Account (HSA) without paying penalty taxes.

The limit for this one-time transfer is currently set at $3,000 for an individual retirement account owner. If you have a spouse who is also retired and has an HSA, they can also make a one-time transfer of up to $3,000 from their IRA to their HSA.

It's important to note that this one-time transfer is a total limit and cannot be repeated in future years.

When you retire, making a one-time deposit from your IRA into your Health Savings Account (HSA) can be a smart move, especially since you won’t face any penalty taxes on this transfer. It provides a great opportunity to enhance your healthcare savings.
