IRS Forms 1099-SA and 5498-SA
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) requires Wells Fargo to issue Form 1099-SA if you took a distribution from your Wells Fargo HSA during the previous tax year. For more information regarding the 1099-SA, you can access the Understanding IRS Form 1099-SA guide.
If you had any contribution activity in your Wells Fargo HSA during the previous tax year, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) requires Wells Fargo to issue Form 5498-SA. For more information regarding the 5498-SA, you can access the Understanding IRS Form 5498-SA guide.
Maximize your savings
Remember to contribute up to the maximum annual amount allowed by the IRS to maximize your tax savings. In 2010, the maximum allowed is $3,050 for single coverage and $6,150 for family coverage. If you are age 55 or older, you can make an additional catch-up contribution amount of up to $1,000. In 2011, the maximum annual amounts will stay the same.**
