Dependent Care FSA Why should I choose a dependent care FSA? A dependent care FSA allows you to put aside a portion of your paycheck before taxes for eligible dependent care expenses each year.
Save money The dependent care FSA lets you pay for eligible dependent care expenses while you reap the benefits of additional tax savings. You’re spending the money either way. This way, eligible childcare and other dependent care costs are a little less.
Fast Fact For recurring costs, submit our Recurring Dependent Care Form. It makes claim filing simple because you only need to submit one form once in order to get reimbursed each pay period. You can find the form on the back of this handout.
Save strategically Submit all of your dependent care expenses at the end of the plan year for one lump sum reimbursement to give yourself a hard-earned “bonus”.
