Caleres - Tax-Advantaged Accounts

Health Savings Account (HSA)

An HSA can be used to pay for eligible medical, dental, and vision expenses. You must be enrolled in the Consumer Plan to contribute to an HSA.

Triple tax savings

1. You pay no FICA or federal taxes on the money you invest in your account or on the earnings. In most states¹, you avoid state taxes on the money, too.

2. You can use the money to pay for qualified medical, prescription drug, dental and vision expenses—tax free.

3. You can start investing when your balance reaches $2,000, and any interest or investment income you earn on your account is tax free.

Contribution limits & company contributions

Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA)

Contribute pre-tax to an FSA to pay for eligible health and dependent care expenses.

Important: Any unused FSA funds are forfeited each year. You have until March 31, 2025, to submit claims incurred through December 31, 2024. You will forfeit any unused 2024 funds as of April 1, 2025.

Health Care FSA

You can contribute up to $3,300 in 2025 to pay for eligible medical, dental, and vision expenses. If you’re enrolled in the Consumer Plan, you’ll have a “limited purpose” account that can only be used for eligible dental and vision expenses.

The entire annual contribution amount is available the day your coverage starts.

Dependent Care FSA

You can contribute $290 – $5,000 in 2025 to pay for dependent care services that allow you and your spouse/domestic partner to work or attend school full time. Eligible dependents include:

Your children under age 13
An incapacitated older child
An incapacitated spouse/domestic partner or dependent parent

Note: The Dependent Care FSA is not “preloaded.” That means you can only use the funds as they become available each pay period.

HSA vs. Health Care FSA: Which is right for you?

Both the HSA and Health Care FSA both allow you to set aside pre-tax dollars to pay for eligible medical, dental, and vision expenses.

Here are some key differences to help you decide which is best for you:
