What is the maximum amount excluded from income by law in 2018 for employer-provided parking?

The maximum amount excluded from income by law in 2018 for employer-provided parking is indeed $260. This figure represents the maximum monthly exclusion for parking facilities offered by employers, as adjusted for inflation. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) sets this limit, which applies to employer-provided fringe benefits, and the amount may change from year to year to account for inflation and other economic factors.

In 2018, the exclusion was higher than previous years, reflecting adjustments made based on cost-of-living increases. Employee benefits such as parking can significantly impact tax liability, so understanding the exclusion limits is crucial for both employers and employees when navigating payroll considerations and tax planning.
