W-2 Reporting for groups > 250 employees

For employers filing more than 250 W-2's in 2011, you are required to report the cost of employer sponsored coverage on your employee's W-2 for 2012 (tax filing in 2013).  The amount reported does not affect tax liability, and is not taxable.

For more information please talk to your accountant or go to http://www.irs.gov/uac/Affordable-Care-Act-Tax-Provisions for additional information.
