Description
IRS has announced that they plan to issue letters informing applicable large employers (ALEs) of their potential liability for an employer shared responsibility payment in late 2017 for the 2015 calendar year. The IRS determination of whether an employee may be liable for an ESR payment is based on information reported to the IRS on Forms 1094-C and 1095-C and information about full-time employees of the ALE that were allowed the premium tax credit.
The letter IRS will be sending to ALEs is posted on the SPBA website under ACA on the homepage (IRS Letter on Calculating ESR Liability).
