Save Money on Back to School With FSAFEDS

With Fall just around the corner, now is a great time to make the most of your Federal Flexible Spending Account Program (FSAFEDS) Flexible Spending Account (FSA) with eligible expenses related to getting your dependents ready to go back to school. Many of these expenses are eligible for reimbursement from your Health Care FSA (HCFSA). Eligible products and services include:

  • Physical Exams
  • Vaccinations
  • Dental and vision exams
  • Ice packs
  • Band-Aids
  • First Aid kits

Taking care of your dependent's health is only one part of preparing to go back to school. You may also have dependent care services such as before and after school care, babysitting or nanny expenses which are eligible for reimbursement from your Dependent Care FSA (DCFSA). Remember, you can enroll in a DCFSA or change your current DCFSA elections when you experience a qualifying life event (QLE), such as a change in child care or elder care provider, a change in cost, or a change in coverage.

If you need help determining what expenses are eligible, you can view the eligible expenses lists.
