* Catch-up contributions can be made during the year by HSA-eligible participants who will turn 55 by year-end. ** Unlike other limits, the HSA catch-up contribution amount is not indexed; any increase would require statutory change.Contributions for a given year may be made until the individual’s federal tax return due date for that year, without extensions, in which case the HSA administrator must indicate that post-yearend contributions are attributed to the prior calendar year. |
