What is the Transportation Reimbursement Account?
  • Section 132(f) of the Internal Revenue Code
    provides that employers can provide certain
    employee work transportation benefits to
    employees on a tax-free basis.
  • Employees can obtain this benefit by electing to
    contribute a portion of their employer
    compensation on a pre-tax basis, to fund from
    which they will receive tax-free reimbursement
    for qualified transportation expenses.

Your Transportation Reimbursement Account
Components
  • Qualified Parking Expense
  • permits employees to pay for their share of
    expenses for parking on or near the Employers
    premises or at a location from which the employee
    commutes to work on a pre-tax salary reduction
    basis.
  • costs of parking at or near employees
    residences are not reimbursable.

Your Transportation Reimbursement Account
Components
  • Transit Pass Expenses
  • permits employees to pay for their share of
    expenses for mass transit passes, vouchers, etc.
    for commuting to work on a pre-tax salary
    reduction basis.

5
Your Transportation Reimbursement Account
Components
  • Commuter Highway Vehicle (Van Pool) Expenses
  • permits employees to pay for their share of
    expenses for van pool for commuting to work on a
    pre-tax salary basis.
  • Van Pooling means transportation between the
    employees residence and place of employment in
    a commuter highway vehicle

Your Transportation Reimbursement Account
Components
  • Commuter Highway Vehicle (Van Pool) Expenses
  • A commuter highway vehicle is a highway vehicle
    with a seating capacity of six or more adults
    (not including the driver) and where at least 80
    of the mileage use for a year is utilized for the
    purposes of transportation employees between
    their residences and places of employment and on
    trips which the number of employees carried is at
    least half of the adult seating capacity of such
    vehicle (not including the driver).

7
Your Transportation Reimbursement Account Plan
Maximums
  • The Internal Revenue Service provides for
  • reimbursement as follows
  • Up to 195.00 per month for parking
  • Up to 100.00 per month for Transit and Van Pool
    expenses combined.

8
How Do Transportation Reimbursement Accounts Work?
  • Complete an election form authorizing deduction
    on a pre-tax basis from each paycheck. Your
    contributions will be placed into your account
    throughout the plan year
  • As you incur expenses, submit a claim form,
    receipts, and/or required documentation to
    ProBusiness
  • ProBusiness will reimburse you for your expenses
  • Incurred means a Plan Participant has been
    provided services that gives rise to an expense,
    not when the Plan Participant is formally billed,
    charged for, or pays for the services.

9
Changing your Transportation Reimbursement
Election
  • Unlike the Flexible Spending Reimbursement
    Account plans, where an employee must experience
    a qualified status change to make an election
    change, an employee contributing in to the
    Transportation Reimbursement Account may make
    changes just by choice.
  • The frequency of how often an employee can make
    an election change for this type of reimbursement
    account, is determined by the plan sponsors (your
    employer) account design.
