ACA Employer Mandate – IRS Enforcement Project

This week the IRS announced that it is sending “thousands of” penalty letters to employers with more than 50 employees for alleged failures to comply with the employer mandate provisions of the ACA.

If you receive one of these letters, there is a specified process for responding before the IRS assesses a liability and demands payment. The letters from the IRS include due dates for responses. Please contact us at 410-321-9000 (or contact@smithdowney.com) if you receive one of these letters and would like our assistance in determining whether you are subject to the penalty and with preparing a response.

Also, please contact us if you have any questions about your ongoing ACA compliance efforts.
