HSA Annual Contribution Limits
Health Savings Accounts (HSA) provide tax benefits for the funds that you contribute. However, the Internal Revenue Service limits the amount you are able to contribute to an HSA for each tax year. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) reviews and determines the HSA contribution limits on an annual basis. The limits for 2009 and 2010 are listed below. An additional annual catch-up contribution is available to individuals over the age of 55 who are not enrolled in Medicare.
