The majority of employers that offer an FSA have a December 31 deadline, which means that individuals who are enrolled in an FSA may need to spend all funds by December 31 (with a few exceptions), or unused funds will be forfeited. This December deadline is often referred to as the "use-it-or-lose-it deadline." To help account holders avoid forfeiture, FSA Store offers an interactive for end-of-year FSA budgeting, a searchable , product , the ability to to align with their remaining funds, and much more.
