Did you know?  A change in residency is considered a qualifying change which allows employees to change their medical, dental or vision plans if plan eligibility is affected

  • Employees may be allowed to change their Depcare FSA if the cost of daycare has changed due to a change in the care provider.
  • Under IRS Section 125 Plan rules, a change in residency is not considered a qualifying event to make mid-year changes to Health FSA because moving out of a service area does not impact health FSA eligibility (employees may continue to use the plan if enrolled)
    • Employees enrolled in Health FSA are not allowed to change to the UC Health Savings Plan because the medical plan will create an HSA. The IRS does not allow participants have a Health FSA and HSA at the same time.
  •
