TY2023: IRS Reducing Paper Forms and Expanding 1094/1095 e-Filing Requirements

Late in February, the Department of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service issued final regulations amending the rules for filing returns and other documents electronically (e-file): IRS and Treasury issue final regulations on e-file for businesses | Internal Revenue Service .

These regulations require e-filings beginning in 2024 (for Tax Year 2023). From an ACA perspective, the regulation reduces the electronic filing threshold from 250 forms to 10 forms.
