HSA Common Questions

 

Can I withdraw money from my HSA for non-medical purposes?

Answer:  Yes (answered hesitantly), but there will be a 20% penalty tax for that withdrawal.

In fact, it is actually a little worse than that:

You will not only have a 20% penalty, but you will also owe taxes on the money withdrawn. This 20% penalty is an increase from 10% and is effective 1/1/11.

Side-note: this increase is a result of the new health care reform.
