NYS-Ride:  A Transportation Benefit for NYS Employees


NYS-Ride is a program that allows New York State employees to save money on eligible public transportation expenses by paying for the costs on a pre-tax basis through biweekly payroll deduction. Beginning July 2, 2008, you may take advantage of this pre-tax benefit by paying for your public transportation expenses, such as fares for buses, trains, and subways by enrolling in NYS-Ride.

By enrolling in NYS-Ride, you can save money on work-related transportation expenses–fares for riding buses, trains, subways, and other types of mass transit or vanpools–and support a greener New York.

The IRS has increased the allowable pre-tax amount effective for the January 2009 benefit month, you may set aside up to $120 per month in pre-tax salary when you enroll in NYS-Ride.  Employees who participate in NYS-Ride save up to 40 percent on transportation expenses and average $416 in savings annually.

There is no open enrollment period. You must enroll two months prior to the month you would like to participate. For additional information or to enroll in NYS-Ride, visit www.nysride.com.
