Employers who may have a shared responsibility payment under tax code Section 4980H for not offering health care to full-time employees under the Affordable Care Act can expect to hear from the Internal Revenue Service about payments due beginning in 2015, but only if IRS has strong evidence to support its assessment, an IRS official said March 12.
Employers will be able to dispute or explain why the shared responsibility payment assessment may be incorrect, similar to standard IRS notice and demand procedures for assessable payments, Frederick Schindler, director of implementation oversight at the IRS Affordable Care Act Office, told members of the payroll industry at the American Payroll Association 2013 Capital Summit in Washington, D.C.
