Flex Spending Account Reimbursements for Eligible Expenses (2022)
The Office of Human Resources would like to remind all New York State employees who contributed to a "Flex Spending Account" (FSA) in 2022, that the plan year ends on December 31, but you still have 90 days from this date to send in documentation of qualifying expenses you incurred during the plan year. So, you have until March 31, 2023 to submit claims for services rendered from January 1 through December 31 of the preceding year.
Note: You can only be reimbursed for expenses that are incurred and paid for during your period of coverage in calendar year 2022.
If you fail to submit appropriate receipts for any unused funds, by the March deadline date, you will forfeit such contributions and will not receive reimbursement or credit. To avoid the rush for reimbursement, please mail or fax you 2022 FSA claims along with your receipts as follows below or call the FSA administrator at 800-358-7202:
