I incurred and paid a $25 qualifying charge to a Care Provider in 2019, but it was not submitted and reimbursed by my FSA until 2020.
Should my carried-forward FSA balance include this? If I include it, it ends up trying to give me a credit on unreimbursed $25. I don't want the credit; I just want the expense to be balanced with the reimbursement.
The IRS instructions say "Don't include amounts you expect to receive at a future date". So when should this be included? In 2020, my reimbursed benefits will be $25 more than my expenses incurred for that year.
