Rules for deducting contributions and records

Here are the key points to keep in mind regarding when you can claim HSA contributions on your taxes:

• You can claim HSA contributions made by you or your employer.
• If your contributions were made through payroll deductions, they are already considered pre-tax, so you do not need to claim them on your taxes.
• If you made contributions outside of payroll deductions, you can deduct those contributions on your tax return.
• Be sure to keep accurate records of your HSA contributions for tax purposes.
