I was laid off and lost access to unused dependent care money. Anyone know how to get it back? Health Equity says I had to spend it by July (on the date I was laid off) but that makes no sense - how would I spend down the money if I didn’t know I was being laid off? They said the ex employer can sometimes get the funds to employees. This was money taken out of my own paycheck! Why would it be lost and inaccessible? Anyone know about any laws to reference? My former employer hasn’t responded

Hey team! So I was laid off from my SDR position about a week ago. A couple months back, I had an offer for a BDR position that I ended up turning down but I really liked and connected with the manager. Is it worth it to reach out? I applied to other positions in the same company. What about reaching out to previous co workers at a different company? Not sure how to navigate this… please help. Also I’m sorry if this is the wrong bowl to post in.
