Are you prepared?
The end of the year is almost here and we know that there are a lot of year-end processes for you to take care of. CMS is here to help you be proactive in preparing for your 2016 ACA filing.
Here’s what you need to know:
- Corrections to 2015 1095-C’s should be completed prior to working on 2016 1095-C forms to avoid duplicate rejections from the IRS
- 2016 1095-C’s due to the employee by January 31st 2017
- 2016 1094-C & 1095-C’s due to the IRS February 28th 2017 for paper filing or March 31st 2017 for e-filing
- Names for employees and ALL dependents must be entered into HRMS as it appears on their Social Security Card. Must include middle initial and/or suffix when applicable
- Utilize the Social Security Number Verification System (SSNVS) to verify all:
- Employees – New Hires, Transfers, Acquired, PT to FT benefit eligible
- Dependents – Spouses, Domestic Partners, Children
- Verify all dates are entered into Sage HRMS correctly – Eligibility, Hire, Term, Effective, and Employee Status changes
- Prepare a list of all new hires, terminated employees, employees with life events and anyone who is newly eligible/ineligible for benefits to coordinate appropriate codes for the 1095-C’s
