Sauder Schelkopf is investigating a class action lawsuit on behalf of individuals who purchased MTA transit passes from March 18, 2020 and April 2020. It has been reported MTA is not providing refunds for transit passes. Additionally, many New York City workers have been ordered to stay home. WageWorks’ Transitchek program allows commuters to use pre-tax dollars of up to $270 a month to pay for subway, bus, train, ferry, car or eligible vanpools, while also reducing payroll taxes paid by their employers. It was further reported that “the MTA’s website says it does not provide refunds for MetroCards “while the transit system continues to operate” and is unable to resolve issues with ‘pre-tax MetroCards you received through programs like WageWorks.'”
