Key dates for participating employees in Flexible Spending Accounts
As the benefits plan year comes to an end, here is a schedule of upcoming deadlines:
Medical Spending Account
March 31Â – Last day for active employees to use the funds in the regular plan year.
June 29Â – Last day to submit 2017-18 claim(s) with receipt(s)/substantiation.
Up to $500 will be automatically rolled over into your 2018-19 account as long as you are still actively participating in the plan. You do not need to notify us of the need to carryover any unused funds; it will happen automatically. Any balance over $500 remaining unspent will be forfeited (use-it-or-lose-it rule).
Dependent Care Spending Account
March 31Â – Last day to use the funds in the regular plan year.
June 15Â – Last day to use funds in the 2.5-month grace period.
June 30Â – Last day to submit 2017-18 claim(s) with receipt(s)/substantiation.
