    Employer's HSA contribution

    Based on my understanding, for a 2% shareholder of a S-corp, the health premium paid by the employer has to be added to his W-2, but not subject to Social Security and Medicare tax. And then the 2% shareholder can claim the self-employed health premium deduction in his individual tax return to offset it. Please correct me if I am wrong.

    Does the same rule apply to the HSA contribution made by the employer for a 2% shareholder of a S-corp?

      So, just like the health insurance premium, HSA contribution is not subject to social security tax and medicare tax. Is it right? Just want to confirm. Thank you.
