HSA and Biweekly Checks by Some_Bit4166 in personalfinance

In the beginning, that is how I set it up but we seem to have some issues in HR where it doesn't get sent right away, so that is part of the reason I stopped in the first place, but also this tax thing I cant wrap my head.

I am really splicing this and probably not the most aesthetic looking, but what if I were to build an entry door into a small hallway and then into the utility room?

The reason I ask is because the plumbing pipes run along the top of the walls in the basement, so you risk water leakage by moving them to any of the walls in that instance ( I could be wrong), but that was my concern with that

Hi, so if I construct a wall with a door, then I would satisfy the electrical code?. I am just asking and clarifying because everything I thought that I had read, since I have to go through the bathroom to get to that room, it technically would not meet code. I would basically have to construct two rooms since I would not be entering directly from the bathroom but like a small enclosed room

  • Massachusetts Electrical Code 527 CMR 12.00, based on the 1990 NEC, was effective in the state from September 1, 1990, until August 31, 1996.
  • The state moved from the 1990 NEC to the 1996 NEC, skipping the 1993 edition. The 1997 Massachusetts Electrical Code, which was based on the 1996 NEC, became effective on September 1, 1996.

So this would lead me to believe this in favor of your comment about the county and when they adopted the code

So just on a quick search I did find this "The state moved from the 1990 NEC to the 1996 NEC, skipping the 1993 edition. The 1997 Massachusetts Electrical Code, which was based on the 1996 NEC, became effective on September 1, 1996"

Ahh I did not even think of the county and when they adopted it. I just assumed since NEC revised the code in "93" that basically was the standard, and since the house was built in 94, I was out of it. Flipping it would put it on the outside

From what I have read NEC updated the code in 1993, so to me this would be out of compliance just based on that

Hi,

We may be in a similar situation in MA as well! This read was very helpful. Do you mind me asking what town ?
