Flexible spending account (FSA) limits for 2025 have been announced by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The annual contribution limit for health FSAs will increase to $3,050, while the limit for dependent care FSAs will remain at $5,000. These limits apply to both employer-sponsored and individually purchased FSAs.
FSAs are tax-advantaged accounts that allow employees to set aside pre-tax dollars to pay for qualified medical expenses or dependent care costs. This can result in significant savings on taxes. For example, an employee who contributes $3,050 to a health FSA in 2025 will save $610 in federal income taxes (assuming a 20% tax bracket).
