2018 HSA contribution deadline and limits

Here are some important things to know about contributing to your HSA for 2018:

  • The deadline to contribute to your HSA for the 2018 tax year is typically April 15, 2019, or the date of your tax filing deadline, whichever comes first.
  • For the 2018 tax year, you can contribute up to $3,450 for individual coverage or $6,900 for family coverage into your HSA.
  • Contributions to your HSA are tax-deductible, meaning you can lower your taxable income for 2018 by making HSA contributions.
