A Flexible Spending Account allows you to pay for eligible healthcare and
dependent daycare expenses with tax-free dollars. You won’t have to pay federal,
social security or state taxes on the money you put into the plan. Your exact
savings will depend on your personal tax rate. (Please see the Domestic
Partnership Flyer for more information on how domestic partners can also benefit
from a Flexible Spending Account.)

It's So Easy to Use Your Flexible Spending Account
Just pay for your expenses and submit a claim. It’s easy to submit claims by email, fax or U.S. mail. Most reimbursements are received within two weeks depending on your plan’s payment option. Your plan may also include a Benny™ prepaid benefits card that you can use to pay for expenses directly from your Flexible Spending Account. For details on what is included in your specific plan, please check your enrollment materials, contact your human resources department or our customer service department.
Log In to your account any time to check your current balance, see the status of a claim or review your claims history.

Get the Most from Your FSA...Plan Ahead to Save
You will want to plan ahead to save the most you can. Money you do not spend will not roll over to the next year so plan carefully! Use our Expense Estimate Worksheet and consider the following:
- What were your expenses last year?
- What new expenses will you have in the coming year? (Such as glasses, prescriptions, orthodontia or a new need for daycare).
- Are all these expenses eligible under the FSA, LFSA or Dependent Daycare?
