4. Are masks FSA/HSA/HRA eligible? Are masks tax deductible?
Yes! In Announcement 2021-7, issued on March 26 2021, the IRS clarified that purchases of PPE such as face masks, hand sanitizer and sanitizing wipes, for the primary purpose of preventing the spread of coronavirus, "for use by the taxpayer, the taxpayer's spouse, or the taxpayer's dependents that are not compensated for by insurance" are deductible from income for tax purposes, "
As tax-deductible expenses, the amounts paid for PPE are also eligible to be paid or reimbursed under health flexible spending accounts (health FSAs), health savings accounts (HSAs) or health reimbursement arrangements (HRAs). For complete IRS guidelines, please visit see IRS page.
