If you expect to be reimbursed from an FSA, then you don't claim the $1,900 as a deduction. That's because the dollars put into the FSA were pre-tax. You enter this amount as money you spent, and it will be subtracted from the amount in box 10 (see next).
Did you have an amount in box 10 of your W-2? This should be the amount contributed to your FSA. I presume you do and it is as large or larger than $1,900.
Contact your employer and see if you can work out the date issue. Then file your return assuming that box 10 was more than $1,900 and that you were reimbursed the $1,900.
Note that any amount on box 10 of your W-2 not reimbursed to you is counted as income to you.
We in the Community really can't say if one thing or another would increase the chance of audit. Just try to get your company to agree to reimburse you by correcting your claim, and carry on.
Try to get this done before July 15th.
