Yes, they do. You must use your Flex spending FSA dollars during the same “coverage period” (i.e. calendar year) that the money was put aside. That “coverage period” is defined as one calendar year (ending on Dec. 31st). (There are some plans that offer a grace period that will allow you to use your remaining Flex Spending FSA dollars until March 15 of the following year.) Once your coverage period expires, however, all unused FSA funds will be lost.
