The amount you or anyone else can contribute to your HSA depends on the type of high-deductible health plan (HDHP) you have, your age, the date you become an eligible individual, and the date you cease to be an eligible individual are also considered.
Any eligible individual can contribute to an HSA. For an employee's HSA, the employee, the employee's employer, or both may contribute to the employee's HSA in the same year as long as the aggregate contributions are under the contribution limit. Family members (or any other person) may also make contributions on behalf of an eligible individual.
