Employees enrolled in the Flex Spending Account for the 2008 plan year have until March 31, 2009 to send in reimbursement requests for eligible expenses incurred under the Health Care Spending Account and the Dependent Care Advantage Account. Under the IRS’s “use it or lose it” rule, if you fail to submit requests for reimbursement for all your eligible expenses by the March 31 deadline, you will forfeit the remaining funds in your 2008 account. You may mail the reimbursement request form and your bill or receipts to: Fringe Benefits Management Company, PO Box 1820, Tallahassee, FL 32302-1820, or fax your reimbursement form and receipts to (800) 743-3271. Reimbursement request forms are available online at www.flexspend.state.ny.us, or by calling the FSA Hotline at (800) 358-7202.
