You stated that the HSA was for 2007 and that he/she is withdrawing HSA dollars for 2008 incurred claims---this is not allowed. They can withdraw for expenses incurred in 2007 only. Otherwise, the dollars stay frozen.
Not correct. See the US Treasury's website for HSA FAQ's
http://www.treasury.gov/offices/public-aff...ing.shtml#hsa10I have an HSA but no longer have HDHP coverage. Can I still use the money that is already in the HSA for medical expenses tax-free?
Once funds are deposited into the HSA, the account can be used to pay for qualified medical expenses tax-free, even if you no longer have HDHP coverage. The funds in your account roll over automatically each year and remain indefinitely until used. There is no time limit on using the funds.
