What tax forms will I receive for my HSA?
Form 1099-SA notifies the IRS of distributions made from your HSA during the tax year. Form 5498-SA notifies the IRS of contributions made to your HSA during the tax year. These forms will be available electronically for your NueSynergy HSA and can be found online under “Tax Forms” within the “My HSA” section.
What is nondiscrimination testing?
Each year, the IRS requires companies with pre-tax reimbursement accounts to complete nondiscrimination testing. Nondiscrimination testing ensures that the business owners and Highly Compensated Employee(s) (HCE) do not receive a disproportionate benefit from a pre-tax plan compared to other employees.
Which employees need to be included in the nondiscrimination testing?
All “eligible employees” who received compensation during the previous year are included in nondiscrimination testing. Generally only union employees, non-resident aliens, leased employees and independent contractors can be excluded from nondiscrimination testing because they are not considered “eligible employees.”
