FSA Rollover (Carryover)

Employers may offer employees the option of rolling over a portion of their remaining Health FSA balance each year, to be used in the same type of plan during the following plan year.  The final balance that is available for rollover will be determined after the current plan year’s claim submission deadline.

COVID-19 Note: The Rollover provision is normally not available for Dependent Care FSA, but due to COVID relief legislation that was passed in 2021, Rollover has temporarily been made available for Dependent Care FSA as well, provided the employer opts in for their plan to include it.
