Get Form 8889 and follow the instructions for completing it.

For example:

- total distributions are reported on Line 12a.

- contributions are reported on Line 2; and the deductible
part (hopefully all) is carried forward to Form 1040
line 25.

I'm going to prepare my wife and my returns this year. One
thing I have a question with. How do I handle HSA's? My
wife received something titled "Combined Tax Statement for
Forms 1098, 1099, 5498" It lists "Gross Distribution
$72.83" and that's it.

On another note, I haven't purchased software yet. Still
deciding between TurboTax and TaxAct. I know TA is cheaper,
but I'm more concerned about accuracy and saving money than
I am about an extra $20.

Thanks, as always.
