Latest Updates on Employer-Provided Educational Assistance Programs

Miller Johnson

Educational Assistance Programs provide employers with an opportunity to provide for the tax-free reimbursement of up to $5,250 per year of an employee’s education expenses under Section 127 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). In addition, education expenses are reimbursable under certain circumstances as working condition fringe benefits under Section 132 of the Code. However, the legal requirements that apply to Educational Assistance Programs and working condition fringe benefits are very different. This webinar will provide an overview of Educational Assistance Programs, including the latest updates applicable to these programs, such as the temporary allowance of tax-free reimbursement of student loans under such programs.

In addition, Brett Liefbroer will discuss the differences between the tax-free reimbursement of education expenses under an Educational Assistance Program versus as a working condition fringe benefit.
