Starting in the third quarter of 2009, the BOP will increase the tax-free transit subsidy to $230 per month for all corrections workers commuting to and from work. But in order to receive the increase, program participants will have to submit a new DOJ Application for Transit Subsidy form by May 5, 2009 to receive an increased benefit beginning in the third quarter of 2009.
The application form can be downloaded here.
If you’re a BOP commuter, be sure to submit the form before May 5th. And if you happen to know any BOP employees, please let them know about this important update.
