If you have funds remaining in your 2023 health care and/or dependent care flexible spending account (FSA), you have until March 15, 2024, to use them. Eligible expenses for use of those funds must have been incurred Jan. 1, 2023, through March 15, 2024, and deadline to file claims for reimbursement for those expenses is April 15, 2024. Please file your claims for reimbursement on or before April 15, or you’ll lose any funds remaining in your 2023 FSA.
