To help us all stay current with the latest ACA requirements, the IRS is offering webinars on the topic. We at RDA will be attending some of these, and expect that you would like to attend the non-technical classes.

There are multiple categories of information provided via QuickAlerts. You choose the categories that interest you, and then you’ll starting getting the related notifications. The categories, per the IRS website, include:

  • Alerts – Processing delays, Programming issues, Changes to any filing season procedure, Error Code and and Business Rule information
  • Technical – Schema information, Software testing (ATS)
  • General Notifications – Seminars, Conferences, e-file publication changes.

As we learn of changes to the ACA requirements, we will make any necessary programming changes, and publish news articles/blogs. Remember that it is your responsibility as an employer to stay up to date and be in compliance with the provisions. You can visit the IRS’ “What Employers Need to Know” page from this link.

Please submit a cyber support request if you need assistance with getting the required information out of the system for reporting purposes.
