FAQs

Most Popular Questions

Are there contribution limits that apply to HCFSAs, and what if both spouses have accounts?

The maximum amount you can allot to an HCFSA is $3,300 (per individual) for a benefit period and the minimum is $100. The total election amount is available on day one of your plan year. After you're enrolled, your funds are withdrawn automatically from each paycheck for deposit into your account before taxes are deducted. If you and your spouse are both active employees of an Executive Branch agency, or an agency, commission, or other federal entity that has adopted the HCFSA and are eligible for FEHB coverage, both individuals may enroll in an HCFSA and contribute up to the maximum of $3,300 each ($6,600 total).
