Thanks for posting this guideline, are you suggesting unused 2019 funds can be applied towards qualified 2020 dependent care expenses - if the employer agrees.
I'm trying to decode statement below -
Extended Claims Period for Health FSAs and Dependent Care Assistance Programs
This notice also provides flexibility for a § 125 cafeteria plan to provide an extended period to apply unused amounts remaining in a health FSA or dependent care assistance program to pay or reimburse medical care expenses or dependent care expenses. Specifically, an employer, in its discretion, may amend one or more of its § 125 cafeteria plans to permit employees to apply unused amounts remaining in a health FSA or a dependent care assistance program as of the end of a grace period ending in 2020 or a plan year ending in 2020 to pay or reimburse expenses incurred for the same qualified benefit through December 31, 2020.
