Extension of Time to File Affordable Care Act (ACA) Information Returns

Generally, any employer that had 50 or more full-time employees during the calendar year ended December 31, 2014 is classified as an “Applicable Large Employer” (ALE) for 2015 under provisions of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). An ALE is required to file certain ACA Information Returns for the calendar year ended December 31, 2015. During 2015, our firm issued two newsletters regarding these rules.

On December 28, 2015, the IRS issued Notice 2016-4, extending the dues dates for filing ACA Information Returns for the 2015 calendar year, which must be filed in 2016. Key information from Notice 2016-4 is set forth below. If your business is classified as an “Applicable Large Employer” (ALE), these extended due dates apply to you.

Tax Tip: Cut Taxes and Save on Energy Bills with Home Energy Credits

You can reduce your taxes and save on your energy bills with certain home improvements. Here are some key facts that you should know about home energy tax credits:

Non-Business Energy Property Credit

• Part of this credit is worth 10 percent of the cost of certain qualified energy-saving items you added to your main home last year. This may include items such as insulation, windows, doors and roofs.
