Bostonist has gotten countless emails from our local HR department and forwards from friends whose benefits specialists have issued missives regarding the changes in the fare structure and how it will affect your monthly pre-tax transit order. The basic fact of the matter is that those $44 T passes are on the way out. The December monthly pass will be the last time a monthly subway-only pass is issued. In January the LinkPass – which serves the same purpose a monthly combo and combo plus pass now serves, will be the only option for subway riders. The monthly purchase cost will rise $15 for those subway only purchasers, but drop $12 or $20 for the combo pass holders. If you can get it through work benefits it's likely pre-tax, the savings or increase will only be a percentage of that amount in paycheck dollars.
