  • United States New York Commuter Benefits-Faqs
    12/7/2020 commuter-benefits-FAQs Menu Search FAQs NYC’s Commuter Benefits Law took effect on January 1, 2016. Under the law, for-profit and nonprofit employers with 20 or more full-time non-union employees in New York City must offer their full-time employees the opportunity to use pre-tax income to purchase qualified transportation fringe benefits. The law is based on the Internal Revenue Code that authorizes pre-tax commuter programs, which benefit employers and employees. The Department of Consumer Affairs (DCA) enforces the law and coordinates the City’s public education and outreach campaign to help employers and employees know their responsibilities and rights when it comes to commuter benefits. THERE’S A BETTER WAY TO WORK with NYC’s Commuter Benefits Law. I. GENERAL QUESTIONS II. EMPLOYERS COVERED/NOT COVERED BY THE LAW III. DETERMINING NUMBER OF FULL-TIME EMPLOYEES IV. EMPLOYEES COVERED/NOT COVERED BY THE LAW V. TRANSIT COVERED/NOT COVERED BY THE LAW VI. SETTING UP A COMMUTER BENEFITS PROGRAM VII. EMPLOYER RECORDKEEPING VIII. NONCOMPLIANCE AND ENFORCEMENT IX. TAX QUESTIONS – EMPLOYERS, EMPLOYEES I. GENERAL QUESTIONS What are the advantages of a commuter benefits program? A commuter benefits program can provide savings for both employers and employees. Employers can save by reducing their payroll taxes. The more employees who sign up for transportation benefits, the more the employer can save.
