    Form 5498-SA is not directly connected to the taxes. It is an informational form that allows you to report your Health Savings contributions on the IRS Form 8889, from which you can receive tax benefits.

      Form 5498-SA helps track contributions made to the HSA within a financial year. This is necessary information to ensure that all the contributions are made within the limits set by the IRS. If anyone contributes more than the limits, then they are liable to pay penalties and tax complications.

    Form 5498-SA is an important form that includes all your contribution information for your personal records, and you don't need to attach this form to your tax return. The taxpayers need to fill in all the personal information with their personal records, but there are no tax consequences until the funds are distributed from the account.
