Preparing for Year End
As you prepare for your ACA Year End reporting, it is important to note the following best practices:
- Spend 10-15 minutes each month looking at the ACA Timeline employees and resolve any issues or discrepancies. This makes the year end process much easier!
- Make any changes needed to be coding and Line 17 zip codes on the ACA Timeline, and not manually on the Form 1095-C. If you need to delete the Form 1095-C, all manual entries are immediately lost.
- Look at the IRS website to determine the Electronic Filing Deadline.
- Follow the Year End ACA Checklist available on Community.
- If this is the first year for filing ACA with the system, have your Transmitter Control Code (TCC) available from the IRS directly on their website https://www.irs.gov/e-file-providers/air/apply-for-the-affordable-care-act-application-for-transmitter-control-code-tcc.
- Confirm the correct ACA Contact name and phone are populated in the system under the ACA Tab by navigating here: Admin > Global Setup > Company Setup.
