Tax Law Changes for Parking Fees, Vanpool, and Bus Passes
January 13, 2020

On December 20, 2019, H.R. 1865 The Further Consolidated Appropriations Act 2020 was signed into law by the Federal Government. As a result, parking, vanpool, and bus passes for all UW System employees will change from a post-tax to a pre-tax deduction.

• If you are paid monthly, you will see the pre-tax deduction on your January 31 paycheck (for the pay period of January 1 - January 31).
• If you are paid biweekly, you will see the pre-tax deduction on your January 30 paycheck (for the pay period of January 5 - January 18).

In addition, UW System is working with the Department of Employee Trust Funds (ETF) on approval and potential re-implementation of the Parking & Transit Accounts through ConnectYourCare. As we learn more, information on the Parking & Transit Accounts will be shared with employees.

If you have additional questions, please contact human resources.
