2021 Flexible Spending Account Claims Deadline is March 31
The deadline for employees to submit claims for their 2021 Flexible Spending Account (FSA) is Thursday, March 31. Health care and dependent care claims during the 2021 calendar year are eligible if the date of service was in 2021. Any money remaining in the account after this date is forfeited per IRS regulations.
Dependent care claims require an invoice or receipt from the provider. All medical, dental and optical claims should be processed through your insurance plans before submitting them to your health care reimbursement account.
Attach the Explanation of Benefits (EOB) or a claim summary from your insurance plan to the claim form when submitting a claim. For expenses not processed through insurance, submit the itemized receipt.
More information and the FSA claim form and can be found online on the Human Resources Flex Spending webpage.
