I put $5k in a dependent care FSA for 2017. After moving my wife has not gone back to work. She has looked for jobs, but has not found something that fits. Is there any way that we or someone else can salvage at least some of the money? Her mother can watch our child from our house and we can pay her. To what level is looking for work necessary to qualify? Is there an income requirement if she worked something part time in December?
