WHAT IS A DEPENDENT CARE FSA?

SET ASIDE MONEY TO COVER CHILD CARE EXPENSES, PRE-TAX!

PAY LESS IN TAXES

Putting money into a Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account (DC FSA) before you pay taxes on it saves you money by lowering your amount of taxable income. The result? You pay less in taxes each year.

TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR DEPENDENT CARE COSTS

Use money in your Dependent Care FSA to pay for day care, general purpose day camps or after school programs while you are at work for your dependents who are under 13 years old. Pay for adult day care services for dependent adults who are unable to care for themselves. (Must live with you for more than half of the year.)
