Today I learned that $20.00 of each of my paychecks has been going to a flex spending account. What the hell? I have never ever in my life signed up for one of those!!! HR is investigating.
This would have been good to know when I was paying for expensive surgery at the end of May. >_>
Needless to say, I'm NOT paying into an FSA this fiscal year.

You can likely get the money back through the FSA (and anything you’re set to pay in for the rest of the year, with receipts from the surgery…its how it usually works anyhow. Still annoying though, but if you’ve already spent that 20×12 amount in eligible medical deductions, take advantage of the tax free nature of the money.
