Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account

Administered by Discovery Benefits

(866) 451-3399

The Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account enables you to pay for out-of-pocket, work-related dependent day-care costs with pre-tax dollars. If you are married, you can use the account if you and your spouse both work or, in some situations, if your spouse goes to school full-time. Single employees can also use the account.

Eligible Dependent & Daycare Providers

An eligible dependent is someone for whom you can claim expenses on Federal Income Tax Form 2441 "Credit for Child and Dependent Care Expenses." Children must be under age 13. Other dependents must be physically or mentally unable to care for themselves. Dependent Care arrangements which qualify include:

1. A Dependent (Day) Care Center, provided that if care is provided by the facility for more than six individuals, the facility complies with applicable state and local laws
2. An Educational Institution for pre-school children. For older children, only expenses for non-school care are eligible
3. An "Individual" who provides care inside or outside your home. The "Individual" may not be a child of yours under age 19 or anyone you claim as a dependent for Federal tax purposes

You should make sure that the dependent care expenses for which you are currently paying qualify under our Plan. You will be provided with a debit card to pay for dependent care expenses.

Contribution Limits

The law places limits on the amount of money that can be paid to you in a calendar year from your Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account. Generally, your reimbursements may not exceed the lesser of:

1. $5,000 (if you are married filing a joint return or you are head of a household) or $2,500 (if you are married filing separate returns)
2. Your taxable compensation
3. Your spouse's actual or deemed earned income (a spouse who is a full time student or incapable of caring for himself/herself has a monthly earned income of $250 for one dependent or $500 for two or more dependents)

To qualify for a Dependent Care FSA, it is not a requirement that both you and your spouse are employed.  However, reimbursements from your Dependent Care FSA cannot exceed the lower of your or your spouses (if married) earned income.

In order to have the reimbursements made to you from this account be excludable from your income, you must provide a statement from the service provider including the name, address, and in most cases, the taxpayer identification number of the service provider on your tax form for the year, as well as the amount of such expense as proof that the expense has been incurred. In addition, Federal tax laws permit a tax credit for certain dependent care expenses you may be paying for even if you are not a Participant in this Plan. You may save more money if you take advantage of this tax credit rather than using the Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account under our Plan. Ask your tax adviser which is better for you.
