Flexible Spending Account

Questions and answers

The maximum contribution limit for all FSAs are determined by the Internal Revenue Service(IRS). In Revenue Procedure Code 2016-55 the IRS increased the maximum contribution limit for Healthcare FSAs to $2600 in 2017. FSAFEDS has adopted this new higher limit on 1/1/2017.

This change does not affect the limit associated with Dependent Care FSAs.
