If a 5-year-old child is in a private school, is the entire expense reimbursable under my Flexible Spending Account?
The IRS has made the determination that a 5-year-old child in school is considered to be in a kindergarten level class. The cost of the services for instructional education is not reimbursable. If a 5-year-old child or younger does not receive instructional education for a full day, but instead receives daycare services for a portion of that day, the provider must itemize a receipt with the hours of education and the hours of daycare services. The cost for the hours of daycare is reimbursable under your Flexible Spending Account. The cost for the hours of educational instruction is not reimbursable.
