Navigating employee benefits in an ever-changing regulatory landscape.

Earlier today, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) announced the annual inflation adjustments for more than sixty tax provisions for tax year 2026.

Highlights of changes in Revenue Procedure 2025-32

The items of greatest interest to most Diversified agents and clients include the following dollar amounts:

  • Qualified Transportation Fringe Benefit – the monthly limitation for the qualified transportation fringe benefit and the monthly limitation for qualified parking increases to $340, an increase of $15 from the limit for 2025.
  • Health Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) – the dollar limitation for employee salary reductions for contributions to health FSAs increases to $3,400. For plans that permit the carryover of unused amounts, the maximum carryover amount is $680, an increase of $20 from 2025.

Note: Diversified will automatically increase FSA plan limits – including carryover – so no action is required at this time. (However, if a client previously directed Diversified to not implement annual adjustments, the limits will not change.)
