14. HSA Accounts Tax Free 1.Deposit pre-taxed 2.Write off at the end of the year 2016 Contribution Limits: (Employer and Individual contributions combined) –Single - $3,350 –Family - $6,750 –Over age 55 - $1,000

15. Increase in annual HSA contribution. Previously, the maximum HSA contribution was the lesser of the deductible of the individual's HSA-eligible plan or a statutory maximum. The new rules make the limit the statutory maximum contribution, regardless of the individual's deductible. For 2016, the maximum contribution for an eligible individual with self-only coverage is $3,350, and the maximum contribution for an eligible individual with family coverage is $6,750. These limits are indexed for inflation. The catch up contribution for individuals who are 55 or older is increased by statute to $1,000 for 2016. Full HSA contribution regardless of month individual becomes eligible. Normally, the HSA contribution is pro rated based on the number of months that an individual during the year a person was an eligible individual. The new provisions provide an exception to this rule that will allow individuals who become covered under an HSA-eligible plan in a month other than January to make the maximum HSA contribution for the year based on their coverage in the last month of the year. This eliminates a common barrier to switching to HSA- eligible coverage. If an individual does not stay in the HSA-eligible plan 12 months following the last month of the year of the first year of eligibility, the amount which could not have been contributed except for this provision will be included in income and subject t o a 20 percent additional tax.
