An FSA provides a way to save money on everyday health and dependent care expenses because you're using tax-free dollars to pay for them. You can only enroll in an FSA during Open Enrollment or if you experience an IRS Qualifying Status Change. Keep in mind that there are separate FSAs for health care and dependent care.

It's important to note that you must file claims within 90 days of the end of the benefit plan year. Additionally, with an FSA, you must use the money you've contributed by the end of the year, or you may forfeit amounts over the allowed rollover.
