Qualified Transportation
Fringe Benefits (IRS' Final Rule)
“This issue (January 11, 2001) of the Federal Register contains
final regulations relating to qualified transportation fringe benefits.
These final regulations provide rules to ensure that transportation
benefits provided to employees are excludable from gross income. These
final regulations reflect changes to the law made by the Energy
Policy Act of 1992, the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997, and the Transportation
Equity Act for the 21st Century. These final regulations affect
employers that offer qualified transportation fringes and employees
who receive these benefits.”
