What is the maximum contribution limit for my HSA?

Having a Health Savings Account (HSA) is a great way to save for future medical expenses while enjoying tax benefits. Many individuals wonder about the maximum amount they can contribute to their HSA each year.

The maximum contribution limit for an HSA is set by the IRS and is subject to change annually. For 2021, the maximum contribution limits are:

• $3,600 for individuals
• $7,200 for families
• An additional $1,000 catch-up contribution for individuals aged 55 and older

It's important to keep in mind that these limits are for the total contributions made to your HSA for the year, including contributions made by both you and your employer. If you exceed the annual contribution limit, you may be subject to tax penalties.

Contributing to your HSA up to the maximum limit is a smart way to maximize your tax savings and ensure you have funds set aside for any future medical expenses.

Curious about how much you can contribute to your Health Savings Account (HSA) each year? The IRS determines the maximum contribution limits, and they can change from year to year. For 2021, these limits are set at $3,600 for individual accounts and $7,200 for family accounts. If you're aged 55 or older, you can also make an extra catch-up contribution of $1,000. Be sure to track your contributions carefully to avoid any penalties for exceeding these limits.
