What it does
The Employer Participation in Repayment Act would make permanent a provision allowing employers to provide up to $5,250 per year in student loan repayment assistance to employees on a tax-free basis under educational assistance programs. Currently, this exclusion is set to expire for payments made after January 1, 2026; the bill removes that sunset date, making the tax benefit ongoing. The change would affect employers who offer such assistance and employees with student loan debt, allowing continued tax-advantaged support for loan repayment beyond 2025. The amendment would apply to payments made after the date of the bill’s enactment.
