went to gather info for an FSA reimbursment. somehow the funds left the year I thought they were in and so I am too early (I thought they were in 2024 but already moved to 2025).
then went to gather info for a hospital indemnity claim. good gravy is gathering that going to be a pain in the ass.
I really don’t like when people center justify a column of numbers of varying numbers of digits. These numbers range from 1 to 6 digits. C’mon… that needs to be right justified.
I didn’t take my work’s health insurance this year. I cannot contribute to their HSA.
Payroll contributed to my HSA anyway, against my elections. I caught it on my paycheck. They told me, because I auto-invest my HSA, I need to sell stocks so they can claw the amount back. I do so, they say the money is clawed back and… it’s there. For days. For a week. I keep bugging them why, and finally they look back into it and see - they instead withdrew from my 401k.
So, they need to put the money back into my 401k, then claw back from the HSA.
I can’t see when or where the money left my 401k and they don’t know how I’m supposed to be able to see it. I’m confused how they clawed back the money when my cash position is $0.
I didn’t pay attention to the updated numbers and busted out of a poker tournament 5 minutes before getting paid. [thought that only 81 got paid, instead of 107. ] I missed out on 8 whole dollars!
It’s my understanding that selling the stocks doesn’t trigger any tax, and them clawing it back as a correction doesn’t count as a withdrawal. I need to be careful that the vendor doesn’t count me as still having contributed to the HSA as they currently do, but I think the tax implications are clear.
Of course the company oh so helpfully said “we are not tax professionals and encourage you to consult one.”
I’m considering asking for reimbursement for just that.
