- Any items for which you are reimbursed cannot be claimed again as deductions or credits on your individual tax return at the end of the tax year
- IRS Guidelines prohibit the advancement of dependent day care account funds. If a dependent day care claim is submitted for an amount that is larger than the amount credited to your account, then payments will be issued according to the amount available.
