Extra money as soon as you enroll.
• You agree to put a portion of your pay into at least one special account called a Flexible Spending Account (FSA)
• Then, as you incur eligible expenses, you pay for them using the money in the FSA
Copyright 2014 Employee Benefits Corporation 10
Extra money is available automatically.
• Normally, federal, state and payroll taxes eat up about 30% of what you earn–However, every dollar you place in these
special FSAs is tax-free– So, a $500 election lets you keep the $150 you
would have paid in taxes• There’s your extra money
