Hi
I have a job and been deducting money ($1000 for the year) into my employer sponsored dependent FSA. But my wife does not have a job and does not have earned income so far this year. I enrolled into dependent FSA after I read somewhere that "Activelly Looking for a job" makes one eligible for Dependent case benefits. My wife has been actively looking for a job with out much success so far. Her chances of landing a job before the end of the year is bleak. She has decided to get back to school now (not full time).
I am really confused about if I am eligible to get reimbursed for dependent care expenses from my FSA account. My question is, Can I get this money reimbursed (for my child's day care expenses) and later pay taxes on this when I files taxes ()assuming I am not eligible?
Thanks
Raj
