  • Eligibility and uses:
    • Even if you do not enroll in the MyHealth360 medical plan, or if your dependents are not enrolled, you can still open a Dependent Day Care FSA to pay for your family’s eligible expenses.
    • A Dependent Day Care FSA is used to pay for qualified child, adult or disabled dependent day care services so you can work. Your Dependent Day Care FSA cannot be used to pay for dependent medical expenses.
  • Contribution limits:
    • For 2026, the Dependent Day Care FSA minimum contribution is $100 and the maximum contribution is $7,500 (a 50% increase from last year). Unused Dependent Day Care FSA funds do not roll over.
    • Under IRS guidelines, pre-tax contributions are deducted evenly from 26, bi-weekly paychecks, but you can only be reimbursed for the amount you already contributed to your account.
    • How much should I contribute? 
    • When filing your taxes, you may use the Dependent Day Care FSA, the federal tax credit or a combination of both. You may want to consult a tax advisor.
    • Please note: If you are a highly compensated team member (as defined in IRS guidance), your contributions may be further limited by the Plan’s annual nondiscrimination testing. If you make a Dependent Day Care FSA election that surpasses the IRS limit, you will be notified by the Benefits Department regarding any required adjustment.
  • Payments, reimbursements and account balances:
    • Use the Lively debit card (linked to your Dependent Day Care FSA) to pay for qualified expenses for you and your eligible dependents.
    • At the end of each calendar year, there is a runout period until March 1 to submit prior year FSA claims. After March 1, any unused Dependent Day Care FSA dollars will be forfeited, in accordance with IRS rules.
    • Visit Lively or download the mobile app to submit FSA claims and check account balances.
