HR 2436 United States House · 119th Congress

To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to treat distributions from health savings accounts for funeral expenses of the account beneficiary as qualified distributions.

This bill amends the tax code to allow health savings account (HSA) funds to be used tax-free for funeral expenses of the account holder. It defines covered expenses broadly - including burial, cremation, caskets, funeral services, and related costs - and sets a $5,000 annual limit per person. Expenses incurred within 90 days of the account holder’s death can be treated as if paid before death. The change applies to distributions after the bill’s enactment for eligible taxable years.
