Your Dependent Care FSA is directly linked to your employment status. However, unlike the Medical FSA, Dependent Care expenses incurred after the date of separation are able to be reimbursed up to the the plan year end.
You are able to submit qualified expenses up to your available balance for reimbursement through the plan year end in which you terminated employment. If you do not have any qualifying expenses, any remaining balance in the plan will be forfeited.
