Both HSAs and FSAs allow you to set aside pre-tax dollars for qualified medical expenses. The primary difference is that HSA funds roll over year to year and remain with you even if you change employment, whereas FSA funds are typically “use it or lose it” within the plan year and may be forfeited if you leave your job.

When do FSA benefits expire?

Flexible Spending Account (FSA) benefits typically expire at the end of the plan year, though this varies by plan. Many FSAs have a “use-it-or-lose-it” rule, meaning unused funds are forfeited. However, some plans offer a grace period of up to 2.5 months into the new year to spend leftover funds, or allow a carryover of up to $610 (as of 2024) into the next plan year.

To confirm specific details for your FSA, consult your employer or FSA plan administrator.
