If you miss Open Enrollment, you may submit a Cafeteria Form by December 20 to affect the following year. These qualifying events include birth, adoption or foster placement, the return to work of either parents or a significant change in income.

Reimbursement instructions for monthly child-care expenses
Note | ||
---|---|---|
| ||
Please fill out your reimbursement forms and submit them to finance@reliantreimbursements@reliant.org on a monthly basis. If you have multiple service providers in a given month, please fill out one reimbursement form for the entire month for each provider and attach all receipts for the amounts paid to that provider within the month. For example, if you have two babysitters that you paid weekly, you can either create one receipt for all the weekly payments for each babysitter to sign (so you create a monthly summary receipt for the babysitters to sign) or attach a receipt for each weekly amount paid to the babysitters within the month. Then you would fill out one reimbursement form for each babysitter for the month. |
