I'm Nicole Lapin, the only financial expert you don't need a dictionary to understand.

It's time for some money rehab. If you're a regular in the Lappinverse you know that I love putting reminders in my calendar.

I have a calendar reminder to schedule my calendar reminders, not too

dissimilarly from how I have a label for my label maker box. Now to be fair,

it is in an area where a lot of boxes are labeled and it would be weird if

the label maker didn't have a label just saying I know it's a little insane it

might not bring you the same joy it brings me and that's totally okay but you should

have a few calendar reminders set for your financial self and today I'm

going to walk you through those important dates for 2024 and I'm not going to

give you the hard final final deadlines because for a lot of the big financial projects that you need to tackle throughout the year

You shouldn't start the day they're due or frankly you'll be screwed.

So for those more time-intensive financial deadlines, I'm going to give you two deadlines,

the hard and fast due date and my recommendation for the start date. But you do you.

Let's jump into the first important date we should all put on our calendar and it's a short jump because I want you to flip to you today for FSA reimbursement.

Yep, I'm going to give you homework for one of the financial deadlines right now.

If you had an FSA in 2023,

you should check with the HR department at your company

if you're at a big company and you have one today

to confirm when you'll need to submit all of your 2023 receipts for

reimbursement and just to be clear this deadline is for submitting receipts for

FSA eligible expenses that you gathered throughout 2023 and not the new expenses that you've

maybe already made for 2024.
