Here’s everything you need to know about ACA Form 1095 filing for 2024 and how TaxBandits can simplify the process.
ACA Reporting and Tax Compliance: Ensuring Employers Meet Their Requirements
The ACA imposes several tax compliance requirements on employers, especially those designated as ALEs, to ensure employees have access to health insurance.
- Form 1095-B and 1094-B: This form reports the individual’s minimum essential coverage (MEC) as per the ACA. You must file 1095-B with the IRS, and a copy must be issued to the recipients.
- Form 1095-C and 1094-C: This form is filed by ALE with 50 or more full-time equivalent employees to report their employees’ health coverage information to the IRS, and a copy of Form 1095-C must also be issued to the employees.
What’s New in ACA Reporting for the 2024 Tax Season?
There are no significant changes to the forms or instructions about ACA reporting for the 2024 tax year. However, several other changes have been implemented, including penalties for non-compliance with the ACA reporting requirements, updates on affordability percentages, and adjustments to ACA penalty rates for the 2024 tax year.
