IRS Eases Reporting Requirement for Small Businesses1 min read

by | Blog, Business Tax Planning

The “Affordable Care Act of 2010” requires employers to report the cost of coverage under an employer-sponsored group health plan on the employee’s W-2 for 2012.
However, the IRS is easing this requirement for small companies. Employers issuing fewer than 250 W-2s will not need to include the cost of health care on W-2s for 2012. For these employers, the 2012 reporting is optional. Also, such reporting will not apply for future years until the IRS publishes guidance giving at least six months of advance notice of any change in the filing requirement.
With questions or for more information, please contact Simons Bitzer at (317) 782-3070.
