I'm looking for clarification on a health savings account being overdrawn; specifically by a debit card transaction. If the bank pays a debit card purchase for the customer and then holds the amount owed on the HSA account, does the bank's action cause the HSA to be disqualified? Or does disqualification only relate to items that we can return, such as checks?

The following question was asked before in 2004. I would like to know if the answer is still the same? Here was the question: If a sole proprietorship is styled Jane Doe dba Jane's Jeans, we would use Jane's SSN for the tax ID. If Jane's Jeans had an EIN, should the account by styled the same? I always understood the first name on the legal title should match the tax ID number.
