The IRS has announced an increase to the health care flexible spending account (FSA) contribution limits for the 2019 plan year. The 2019 FSA contribution level maximum will be $2,700.
Health care FSA contribution limits work on an individual basis. As a result, each spouse in the household may contribute up to the new FSA limit in the 2019 plan year.
This change applies only to salary reduction contributions under a health care FSA; it does not apply to employer-provided contributions, also referred to as flex credits.
