The contribution limit in the first year is not reduced due to partial-year eligibility. A testing period to determine eligibility applies, beginning with the last month of the contribution year and ending on the last day of the twelfth month following. For more details regarding the testing period, consult your current health insurance provider. Contributions can be made until April 15 of the following year.
With the rising cost of health care, saving now through a HSA Checking may be the right move for you.
