Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts
from: Lori DobsonSingle moms and families..The government allows employers to offer a dependent care flexible spending account as a benefit. The benefit works by taking child care monies out of the paycheck prior to taking out taxes. The worker then must claim the money through the Human Resources department by showing receipt of payment for qualifying childcare expenses. This provides help for single moms, and all families, by offering a savings equal to the end of year tax rate on that portion of their income allotted to childcare expenses. However, if all the monies that were put aside in the fund are not claimed, they are not reimbursed to the employee. Therefore, one has to be careful only to allot the exact or less amount that one intends to spend on childcare for the year into these accounts.
