If you participated in a flexible spending account in 2017, please remember that any medical or dependent care FSA claims incurred through December 31, 2017 should be filed for reimbursement before March 31, 2018. While at this point in time you can no longer use your FSA debit card for 2017 claims, you may upload your claims by visiting the website or mobile app. You may also submit your claim(s) via mail or fax by using the claim form. After March 31st, 2018, participants will forfeit any unclaimed 2017 health and dependent care balances. We strongly suggest contacting myCafeteria Plan at 1-800-865-6543, M-F 8am – 8pm (EST) to verify how much you have left to claim for 2017 since rollovers up to $500 have already been added to your 2018 account balances.

You should also make sure you have completed all substantiation requests in order avoid serious tax consequences.  For assistance with substantiation, please contact customer service at 1-800-865-6543, M-F 8am-8pm (EST).
