Beginning February 2019, the maximum Commonwealth Commuter Choice benefit at Mason will increase by $5 to $265 per month. Currently, an Executive Order gives full-time state employees in Northern Virginia up to $260 per month to commute by public transit or vanpool. This is a tax-free benefit paid by the University. To take advantage of this increase beginning with the February benefit, be sure to submit your “Commuter Choice Monthly Benefit Request” by Thursday, January 10.
