Employer contributed $2050
I contributed $1300
----------------------
Everything, the entire amount was spent on qualified medical expenses.
Had I contributed $0 - then Form 8889 (HSAs) would say that I could have taken the Employer contributed $2050 as deduction on Form 1040, line 25.
But since I contributed $1300 - Form 8889 (HSAs) says that I can ultimately take the "smaller" of the two amounts.
This means I would have been better off by *not* contributing since I could have deducted employer's contribution of $2050 instead of my contribution of $1300 - how does that make sense?
