Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021
The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 allows employers to increase carryover amounts and extend grace periods for dependent care and healthcare flexible spending accounts. In addition, organizations may allow election changes without regard to change in status rules (annual limits still apply).
- For a 2020–2021 calendar-year plan, the change must be adopted by 12/31/21.
- For a 2020–2021 non-calendar-year plan, the change must be adopted by 12/31/22.
Now you can help
your employees who:
- Didn’t enroll during annual enrollment because of pandemic uncertainty.
- Haven’t used remaining FSA and DCFSA funds.
- Risk spending down accounts frivolously to avoid forfeiting funds.
- Went without childcare.
- Deferred medical, dental or other care.
