We’re also announcing these updates, allowing you to set aside even more in your FSA:
- The 2026 Day Care FSA limit has increased to $7,500 up from $5,000 in 2025.
- The 2026 Health Care and Limited Purpose FSA limit has increased to $3,400 up from $3,300 in 2025.
A Flexible Spending Account (FSA) lets you set aside pre-tax money from your paycheck to pay for qualified healthcare or dependent care expenses. By contributing pre-tax dollars, you reduce your taxable income.
Remember, those enrolled in a 2025 Health Care or Limited-Purpose FSA have until December 31, 2025, to use their balance, and up to $660 of your remaining balance in 2025 will carry over into 2026.
Those enrolled in a 2025 Day Care FSA can incur expenses until March 15, 2026. You must submit 2025 expenses for reimbursement by June 15, 2026.
