Affordable Care Act (ACA) reporting under Section 6055 and Section 6056 for the 2020 calendar year is due in early 2021. Specifically, reporting entities must:
- File returns with the IRS by March 1, 2021, since Feb. 28, 2021, is a Sunday (or March 31, 2021, if filing electronically); and
- Furnish statements to individuals by March 2, 2021
Originally individual statements were due by Jan. 31, 2021. However, on Oct. 2, 2020, the IRS issued Notice 2020-76 to extend the furnishing deadline.
Notice 2020-76 does not extend the due date for filing forms with the IRS for 2020. Notice 2020-76 also provides additional penalty relief related to furnishing forms to individuals under Section 6055.
