Christine Roberts Posted October 19, 2000 Posted October 19, 2000 What is the current status of the Section 127 educational assistance exclusion? My understanding was that HR 1180 was going to extend it through December 31, 2001. Did this happen? Is the extension applicable to courses begun any time before the cutoff, or did they have to be in existence at any particular time?
