What if I don’t use all of the money in my FSA account(s) by the end of the plan year?

You may forfeit any funds left in your account if you do not submit eligible expenses prior to the end of the plan’s run-out period (60 days after the end of the plan year).

NOTE: Some employers have adopted an option to help you spend down your remaining balance at the end of the year ($500 Carry-Over or 2.5 Month Extended Grace Period options). These options come at a risk to the employer. Please check with your employer to see if your plan has adopted one of these options.
