Save Money on Your Commute
By allowing you to contribute on a before-tax basis* for transit and parking expenses, The Hartford's Commuter Benefits Program helps you take home even more of your paycheck. As an added convenience, if your expenses exceed the monthly IRS limit for before-tax funds, you may also contribute post-tax funds for eligible expenses subject to plan limits. This benefit can help you make a difference in the environment by keeping down emissions of carbon dioxide.
Once enrolled, you can use your NetBenefits CommuterCard® to purchase passes or vouchers for eligible bus, train, ferry, vanpool or parking services in your area. Get more details about the program.
*IRS maximum monthly limit applies.How to Enroll in Commuter Benefits
You can enroll on NetBenefits. Simply log on and select the “Flexible Spending and Reimbursement Accounts” tile. Then, under “Your Current Benefits,” select “Enroll.”
How to Use the Funds Available in your Commuter Account
Your commuter funds are loaded to a NetBenefits CommuterCard®, in separate buckets if you have both a parking and transit account. Fidelity will mail you a card within 5-7 business days from when you complete your online election. You can use the card to pay for your commuting expenses. The amount of funds on your card must cover the full balance of your purchase or the transaction will be declined. Make sure to file any Commuter claims within 180 days of the incurred expense.
