HSA + Cobra = can make deductible contributions?
Here is one I haven't seen in active threads and couldn't find in old threads. If one was formerly employed (W2) and had health insurance plus an HSA and then ended employment and went on COBRA, can one still contribute to the HSA and if so, is it deductible? If the answer to both is yes, how does it work? One would transfer money into the HSA account from general personal cash accounts (checking/savings/whatever) and at the end of the year the HSA provider would send a tax form? IOW, one would fund the HSA with post-tax money but get the tax back at the end of the year?
