                        assistance as taxable for purposes of any 
                        employment tax and as a result of such

                the amendments made by subsection (a) shall not apply 
                to such educational assistance for purposes of such 
                employment tax, but, for purposes of applying such 
                employment tax (and for purposes of the reporting 
                requirements imposed by chapter 61 of such Code), the 
                taxable wages of the employee referred to in clause 
                (iii) shall be reduced by the amount of the increase 
                referred to in clause (ii). For purposes of clause 
                (iv), an employer may assume that the employee treated 
                the assistance in a manner consistent with the 
                employer's treatment unless such employer has actual 
                knowledge to the contrary.
                    (B) Reporting requirement.--An employer shall 
                separately report the amounts of any reduction under 
                subparagraph (A) as nontaxable income on any returns or 
                receipts required under chapter 61 of such Code for
