Flexible Spending Accounts Under COBRAs

If your employer offered a flexible spending account then under COBRA you would be allowed to continue the FSA until the end of its period. So, if let’s say your FSA accounts ran from January to December and you left your job in March, a COBRA would allow you to continue requesting reimbursements until December of this year. You would not be able to elect FSA coverage after December though, so next year you’d be without a FSA.
