On Monday, December 28, the IRS extended the deadline for companies to file Forms 1094-1095, which document ACA compliance. Forms 1094-1095 must be filed by firms with at least **50 full-time employees** in tax year 2015. Here are the changes: -- Firms now have until **Thursday, March 31, 2016** to furnish forms 1095-B or 1095-C to employees. The previous deadline was Monday, February 1. -- Furthermore, firms now have until **Thursday, June 30, 2016** to electronically file Forms 1094-B, 1094-C, 1095-B and 1095-C with the IRS. Paper filers have until **Tuesday, May 31, 2016** -- the day after Memorial Day -- to file Forms 1094-1095. The old deadlines were February 29, 2016 (paper) and March 31, 2016 (electronically). The good news with this development? Firms get a little more breathing room when it comes to ACA compliance. However, the IRS has also noted that no more extensions are forthcoming.
