[Federal Register: April 6, 2001 (Volume 66, Number 67)]
[Rules and Regulations]
[Page 18190]
From the Federal Register Online via GPO Access [wais.access.gpo.gov]

DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY

Internal Revenue Service

26 CFR Part 1

[TD 8933]
RIN 1545-AX33


Qualified Transportation Fringe Benefits; Correction

AGENCY: Internal Revenue Service (IRS), Treasury.

ACTION: Correction to final regulations.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This document contains corrections to final regulations that
were published in the Federal Register on Thursday, January 11, 2001
(66 FR 2241), that ensure that transportation benefits provided to
employees are excludable from gross income.

DATES: This correction is effective January 11, 2001.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John Richards at (202) 622-6040 (not a
toll-free number).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The final regulations that are the subject of these corrections are
under section 132(f) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Need for Correction

    As published, the final regulations (TD 8933), do not address what
taxable year is used for purposes of the applicability dates in the
regulations. These final regulations are being corrected to clarify
that the applicability dates in the regulations are based on the
employee taxable year and that, for this purpose, an employer may
assume that the employee taxable year is the calendar year.

Correction of Publication

    Accordingly, the publication of the final regulations (TD 8933),
which were the subject of FR Doc. 01-294, is corrected as follows:


Sec. 1.132-9  [Corrected]

    1. On page 2251, column 3, Sec. 1.132-9(b), paragraph (a) of A-25,
last two lines of the paragraph, the language ``section is applicable
for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2001.'' is corrected to
read ``section is applicable for employee taxable years beginning after
December 31, 2001. For this purpose, an employer may assume that the
employee taxable year is the calendar year.''.

    2. On page 2251, column 3, Sec. 1.132-9(b), paragraph (b) of A-25,
last three lines of the paragraph, the language ``transit passes are
readily available) is effective for taxable years beginning after
December 31, 2003.'' is corrected to read ``transit passes are readily
available) is applicable for employee taxable years beginning after
December 31, 2003. For this purpose, an employer may assume that the
employee taxable year is the calendar year.''.
