Important information about FSAs
Your FSA elections are effective from January 1 through December 31. Claims for reimbursement must
be submitted by March 31 of the following year. This is known as the grace period. Our Healthcare and
Limited-Purpose FSAs allow you to carry over to the following year up to $550 in unused funds.
Please plan your contributions carefully. Any unused money over $550 that remains in your HCFSA or LPFSA
and any amount in your DCFSA account(s) will be forfeited after the grace period. This is known as the
“use it or lose it” rule, and it is governed by Internal Revenue Service regulations. Note that FSA elections do
not automatically continue from year to year: you must actively enroll each year.
