IRS sets annual maximum HSA contributions

Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) are a great way to save for medical expenses while enjoying tax benefits. One common question people have about HSAs is, 'What is the maximum I can contribute to my HSA?'

The maximum amount that you can contribute to your HSA each year is determined by the IRS. For 2021, the maximum contribution limits are:

• $3,600 for individuals
• $7,200 for families
• If you are 55 or older, you can make an additional 'catch-up' contribution of $1,000 per year

Tax benefits of contributing to HSAs

It's important to note that these limits can change annually, so be sure to check the current limits each year.

Contributions to your HSA are tax-deductible, and any earnings on your HSA funds grow tax-free. Additionally, withdrawals used for qualified medical expenses are tax-free as well.

By contributing the maximum allowable amount to your HSA, you can take full advantage of these tax benefits while building a nest egg for future medical expenses.

• Individuals aged 55 and above can contribute an additional $1,000 as a catch-up contribution.

Keeping track of these limits annually can help you maximize your tax advantages while preparing for unexpected medical expenses.
