I have FSA. You have to submit a detailed invoice for every claim. They will not accept a simple receipt of the total transaction. They give you a debit card, but you still have to submit an invoice when you use it. I actually just use my 2% cash back Citi card and then submit a claim. That way I'm maximizing on my savings.

I like not having to plop down $300 for glasses or other things. On Jan 1 I have access to all the money. Downside is the paperwork, the justification is annoying.

Thanks D1! Have you had situations where they ask you for the receipt to substantiate an expense?

Contacts, glasses, prescriptions, copays...all covered. What downside is there? Oh yeah, just figure out how to use it all!

Not at ACN .... they moved to pay now then get reimbursed model to avoid the whole documentation.

Trying to get the formal approval from my company before officially signing up, advice welcome!

There were several negotiations on the higher priced one. (Continued…)
