Pre-Tax Deduction for Parking Fees, Vanpool and Bus Passes

Effective in January, payroll deductions for parking fees, vanpool, and bus passes will change from a post-tax deduction to a pre-tax deduction. This is a result of recent federal tax law changes.  
  • If you are paid monthly, you will see the pre-tax deduction on your January 31st 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 30th 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.
