Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs)

Lucid offers three types of FSAs to help you save on eligible health and dependent care expenses. You choose how much to contribute each year, and that amount is taken out of your paycheck pre-tax, helping reduce your taxable income. Be sure to elect your annual contribution amount during enrollment.

Rules to Keep in Mind

FSAs offer significant tax advantages, but are subject to IRS regulations:

  • All expenses for the Health Care and Dependent Care FSAs must be incurred during the plan year: January 1 through December 31.
  • The IRS has a strict “use-it-or-lose-it” rule for FSAs. At the end of the calendar year, you may roll over up to $680 of unused Health Care FSA funds. Any remaining funds above this amount will be forfeited. (You must have an active FSA account to be eligible for rollover funds.)
  • Once you enroll in the FSA, you can only change your contribution amount if you experience a qualified life event.
  • Each account functions separately. You cannot transfer funds from one FSA to another.

The commuter benefits program allows employees who commute to and from work to set aside pre-tax funds to pay for work-related transit and parking expenses. Eligible expenses for the commuter benefit include:

  • Transit passes
  • Fare cards
  • Ticket books
  • Vanpool expenses

You may deduct pre-tax money from your paycheck to pay for work commute-related expenses which can help reduce your taxable income. The funds roll over from month to month, unless you no longer work for Lucid. 

You can place orders for only those months you wish to contribute to your account. You can choose the amount you wish to contribute each month, up to the allowable limits ($340/year in 2026). You may change your contribution amount from month to month. You are able to be reimbursed up to the amount available in your account.

To get started, log into www.naviabenefits.com and register. You will need to use Employer Code: LC3.

FSA Highlights

Dependent Care FSA
This FSA is available to all benefits-eligible employees. It helps you pay for childcare, after-school care, day camps, or elder care while you work. Dependent care contributions from previous employers count towards the IRS annual limits. Dependent care contributions from previous employers count towards the IRS annual limits.

Submit any remaining claims promptly. You do not need to repay overspent FSA funds.

Attention Working Parents

A Dependent Care FSA lets you set aside pre-tax dollars to help pay for childcare, after-school programs, and summer day camps while you work.

It’s a smart way to use pre-tax dollars for care you’re already paying for.

Note: The Dependent Care FSA is not a medical FSA for dependents. It can only be used for qualifying dependent care expenses as defined by the IRS.
