FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNTS (FSA)
How to use your FSA
Step 1: Determine how much money you need to set aside on
an annual basis. Be sure to check the maximum and minimum
amounts the plan allows. Be conservative, if it is your first
time enrolling in a FSA plan.
Use the
FSA calculator to estimate your FSA contribution and potential
tax savings (link opens new window).
Step 2: The
District will deduct the amount you elect from your pay
on a pre-tax basis in equal monthly amounts for
the remaining number of pay periods in the plan year.
Step 3: When
you have eligible expenses, pay them out of your pocket
and don't forget to get an itemized receipt
or EOB (Explanation of Benefits) statement.
Step 4: Submit
a claim for reimbursement to SHPS, Inc. by fax or mail:
- Via fax at (502) 267-2233
- Via mail to:
