2020 Flexible Spending Accounts
November 04, 2019
Enrollment period open through Nov. 18
Enrollment for 2020 Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) is now open for eligible University of Delaware employees. The enrollment period will end Nov. 18.
FSAs are voluntary accounts through which UD employees can set aside pre-tax dollars to cover out-of-pocket health care and dependent care expenses. Visit the Human Resources website for details about FSAs.
The maximum annual amount that can be contributed is $2,700 per employee for the health care account and $5,000 per family for the dependent care account.
Please keep the following in mind when deciding how much to set aside in your FSA:
• FSAs do not automatically continue from year to year. You must re-enroll each year. The plan year for FSAs is January through December.
• Carefully consider the FSA contribution level appropriate for you and your family; any balance not used during the plan year and subsequent grace period (2.5 months) will be forfeited.
As a reminder, for any remaining funds for the 2019 plan year, IRS regulations permit a 2.5 month grace period (through March 15) for participants to incur expenses that may be reimbursed from contributions made in 2019. All claims must be submitted by April 30 for reimbursement.
Should you have questions, please contact Human Resources at hrhelp@udel.edu.
Go mobile: Participants can file claims on the go and access account statements 24/7 with the ASIFlex Mobile App. The app is available at asiflex.com, Google play or the App Store.
