How much money can I set aside into the flexible benefit plans?
You can set up a maximum amount of $6,000 under the health care account. Under the dependent care account you set aside a maximum of $5,000 per plan year if you are a single parent or married and filing jointly; $2,500 if you are married and filing separately. The maximum for the dependent care account is set by the federal government and is set at $5,000.
