Hackett will send an email confirmation upon receipt of the form(s), and again once changes have
been processed, along with any new payroll deductions.

When is the first payroll deduction for changes made for the 2024 calendar year? Changes for
Medical and Dental will take place on the December 29th payroll, since we deduct for coverage in

Eligible expenses include public transportation such as CTA, Metra and PACE. More details will
