Is the Affordable Care Act confusing you?

Here are some clear, educational resources to help you understand if and how this applies to your business

If you are an employer large enough to have to comply with the Affordable Care Act, there are two parts of the law that you must pay attention to: the coverage mandate and the related IRS reporting obligation. If you do not meet these obligations, you face steep penalties. Our ACA services can help you navigate the changing ACA landscape and avoid these penalties.

Knowledge is power so we’re on mission to get your ACA education up to speed!

Update on Penalties

  • Penalty amounts go up every year The increase is because of what is called “the premium adjustment percentage” – inflation for premium costs.

  • The 1095-C reporting needs to be done regardless – similar to the W-2 reporting. Failure to file penalty amounts are up to $570 per form.

  • Is the IRS really going to enforce these penalties?

    The answer is, yes. The IRS was audited by the Treasury Inspector regarding the ACA Compliance Verification system that was put in place. Recommendations were adopted and the IRS is moving forward.

    • In a series of information letters, the IRS has clearly indicated that it won’t waive employer mandate penalties under the ACA.
    • Employers who have failed to file necessary forms with the IRS are already receiving letters.
    • The IRS has been sending out penalty letters for 2015.
