According to the Affordable Care Act, employers must file annual information returns with the IRS and distribute these ACA 1095 copies to enrolled employees before the deadline.

Employee Copy Distribution Deadline

To comply, employers must distribute copies of ACA Forms 1095-B / 1095-C to employees/recipients before March 02, 2023, for the tax year 2022.

Penalties

If you fail to file ACA Forms or distribute employee copies on time, the IRS issues penalty letters 5699, 5005-A, and 972CG with proposed penalties under sections 6721 and 6722 to the ALEs.
