Don’t Forget to Turn in Your FSA Receipts!

It’s almost the deadline for turning in 2011 Flexible Spending Account (FSA) receipts! Here are the FSA important dates to remember for your Dependent Care Spending Account (DCSA) and Health Care Spending Account (HCSA):

FSA Form and Piggy Bank — Turn in your receipts and the Reimbursement Request form by April 30!

The deadline to use your DCSA funds was December 31, 2011.
The deadline to submit your receipts for your DCSA is April 30, 2012.
The deadline to use your HCSA funds is March 15, 2012.
The deadline to submit your receipts for your HCSA is April 30, 2012.

Please remember, if you do not use all of your funds and submit your receipts by the required deadlines, IRS code requires the remaining funds be forfeited. If you still have remaining 2011 HCSA funds you’d like to use, you need to pay for eligible items or services out of pocket and then submit receipts along with a reimbursement request form. If you use your HCSA debit card, it will draw from your 2012 account funds.
