2017 Claims Deadline Reminder

Now is the time to make sure you've submitted all your 2017 FSAFEDS claims. All claims for the 2017 benefit period must be received no later than 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on Monday, April 30, 2018. Any 2017 claims received after this time will not be reimbursed. Don't miss a savings opportunity!

Important Reminders

• If you re-enrolled for 2018, the Health Care FSA (HCFSA) or Limited Expense FSA (LEXFSA) allows you to carry over up to $500 into the 2018 benefit period. If you did not re-enroll or you have a balance that exceeds the carryover amount, those unused funds will be forfeited after April 30, 2018.
• The Dependent Care FSA (DCFSA) allows you to continue spending your 2017 funds until March 15, 2018. Make sure you submit all eligible expenses incurred through March 15, 2018. Funds remaining in your account after April 30, 2018 will be forfeited.

Helpful Tips

• To be sure you haven't missed filing any eligible expenses, just check the claims payments in your online account against your 2017 receipts. Log in now to check your claims and payments.
• For Pick and Process paperless reimbursement (HCFSA and LEXFSA only), be sure that you’ve selected all your eligible expenses and scheduled them for payment.
