It's yours Think of your HSA as a personal savings account. Any unspent money in your HSA remains yours, allowing you to grow your balance over time. When you reach age 65, you can withdraw money (without penalty) and use it for anything, including non-healthcare expenses.

You contact your current HSA provider and request it send you a check or direct deposit of your funds, so you can set up an HSA rollover. Then you have 60 days to deposit those funds into your new HSA account. If you fail to do so, the IRS will levy income tax on the amount you rolled over, plus a 20% penalty.

A rollover is another way to consolidate your HSAs. It differs from transfers in that your HSA provider sends your current HSA funds to you and not directly to your new HSA provider.

How long will an HSA transfer take? It may take 2–5 weeks or, in some cases, more, depending on how quickly your current HSA provider responds. If any of your HSA money is invested, your current HSA may be held in 2 separate accounts which are both eligible to be transferred.

If you have multiple HSAs and are ready to consolidate them, there are 3 ways to do so: through a cash transfer, a rollover, or an in-kind transfer.

The bottom line is that your HSA is yours. This account doesn't belong to your employer, so you get to take it with you wherever you go, even if your new employer doesn't offer HSAs or provide HSA contributions.
