*** IMPORTANT IRS UPDATE***

The IRS has started issuing Notice 972CG to applicable large employers who did not file forms 1094C and 1095C electronically when required to do so.  The failure to file electronically in 2015 was $250 per form and increased to $260 in 2017.  This year the penalty will once again increase by $10 to $270 per form.

Employers who are unable to file electronically are required to file for a hardship waiver using form 8809.  Notice 972CG will also be used when the IRS issues penalty letters for failure to file forms in a timely manner.  The IRS strongly encourages all businesses to electronically file, a tedious and often complex task for most businesses.  Medcom Benefit solutions is here to help your business file electronically and avoid IRS penalties.
