Update Employee Contact Information

Audit employee data to ensure you are not missing critical Form W-2 information like complete Social Security numbers, employee names, and addresses. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) may impose a penalty for each Form W-2 with a missing or incorrect Social Security number or employee name. If there are errors, you would then be subject to the following penalties:

Large Businesses with Gross Receipts of More Than $5 Million

Time Returns Files/ProvidedNot More Than 30 Days31 Days Late - August 1After August 1 - Not at AllIntentional Disregard
Due 1/1/2021 - 12/31/2021$50 per return or statement -
$556,500 maximum
$110 per return or statement -
$1,669,500 maximum		$270 per return or statement -
$3,339,000 maximum		$550 per return or statement -

Small Businesses with Gross Receipts $5 Million or Less
Time Returns Files/ProvidedNot More Than 30 Days31 Days Late - August 1After August 1 - Not at AllIntentional Disregard
Due 1/1/2021 - 12/31/2021$50 per return or statement -
$194,500 maximum		$110 per return or statement -
$556,500 maximum		$270 per return or statement -
$1,113,000 maximum		$550 per return or statement -
No limitation

Furthermore, employee Forms W-2 and 1095-C must match what is printed on social security cards. For example, if an employee’s name is hyphenated on their social security card, but not on their Form W-2 or Form 1095-C, the IRS will return this as an error. Failure to verify this information as correct may result in penalties.

If you are not careful, these types of errors can add up to a sizable penalty. For some employees, updated addresses can be garnered from a new W-4 if their withholding allowances have changed or will change next year. Remind employees to fill out a new W-4 if their situation has changed:

  • Ensure employee names are entered correctly
  • Confirm the accuracy of employee addresses
  • Confirm the accuracy of employee Social Security numbers

Employers need to make sure all employee data is accurate, so they can avoid W-2 reprint fees. Employers who use a payroll processing company may have an online service where employees can review and correct data. If so, encourage your employees to use it as a means to review and edit critical data.

PREPARE FOR BENEFITS RENEWAL AND OPEN ENROLLMENT

This timeline can vary depending on your company’s benefits year. Review benefits renewals with current carriers and prepare an eligible employee/participant census to market a group for optional coverage with carriers.

Carriers require a complete census showing all eligible employees and all employees currently enrolled in benefits, along with the following:

  • Dates of birth and gender for all employees, spouses, and dependents.
  • Zip codes for residence and work-site locations.

Utilize your benefits administration system to conduct your benefits renewal reviews and prepare your census. This will ensure all your data is accurate before submitting benefits plan information to your providers.

How APS Can Help

If your organization is not utilizing a benefits administration system, conducting open enrollment can be a challenge. APS Benefits Administration houses this necessary information in a truly unified database, making it easy to manage the following:

  • Online Open Enrollment: Cloud-based open enrollment is available for organizations with multiple locations in one state or multiple locations across multiple states.
  • Multiple Plans: Design your benefits plans and assign employees to their respective plans. Employees can view only the information that applies to them.
  • Employee Self Service: Employees can access the system with a simple internet connection, securely log in, and choose elections in a matter of minutes.
  • Online Document Management: The APS Doc Vault allows for additional benefits information to be loaded into the system for employees to access.
  • Powerful Reporting: APS’ Report Manager houses 80+ out-of-the-box reporting forms, depending on HR needs. The Report Builder allows you to easily create, store, and email reports.

PREPARE FOR ACA ANNUAL REPORTING

Determine if you had 50 or more full-time and full-time equivalent (FTE) employees in the previous calendar year and what type of insurance (self-insured or fully insured) you offered. If your provider offers an FTE Calculator, you can use it to determine how many full-time and FTE employees you had in the previous calendar year. With this number and the type of coverage you offer, determine what Forms you must use to report:

  • 50 or More Employees: Complete and file Forms 1095-C and 1094-C.
  • Less Than 50 Employees (Self-Insured): Complete and file Forms 1095-B and 1094-B.
  • Less Than 50 Employees (Fully Insured): Insurer is responsible for filing on behalf of the employer.
  • Less Than 50 Employees (No Insurance): Reporting is not required.

Note: When the combined total of full-time and FTE employees in a controlled group is 50 or more, each individual employer is subject to reporting.

If you are required to report, gather the information you need to complete the applicable forms and determine which reporting method you will be using. Depending on the method you use, you will need to compile information like:

  • Employee’s name, SSN or date of birth (if SSN is unavailable), and address.
  • Employer’s name, EIN, telephone number, and address.
  • The months in which the employer-offered coverage.
  • The employee’s share of the monthly premium for self-only coverage (in certain cases).
  • The months in which a safe harbor (or other situation) applied (e.g.., the employee was not a full-time employee).
ACA Annual Reporting Deadlines

Due DateDeadline
January 31, 2021Supply Forms 1095-C to employees.
February 28, 2021File paper Forms 1095-C with transmittal Form 1094-C.
March 31, 2021e-File Forms 1095-C with transmittal Form 1094-C.

REVIEW EMPLOYEE CLASSIFICATIONS

Review employee classifications on a regular basis to ensure compliance. Refer to the duties tests and guidance provided by the Department of Labor to manage your employee classification.

REVIEW MEDICARE PART D REPORTING

For employer-sponsored plans providing prescription drug coverage, Medicare Part D reporting is due on October 15 and creditable coverage disclosure notices are to be distributed to Medicare-eligible participants. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) provides guidance and sample notice forms.

CONDUCT BUDGET PLANNING FOR THE NEXT YEAR

Now is the time of year to start reviewing your existing budget and planning for next year. Here are some things to consider:

  • Consult All Departments: You need a clear picture of what is required to run each department smoothly.
  • Estimate Your Revenues for the Year: Know how your company is ending the year to determine the budget needed to reach next year’s revenue goals.
  • Determine Your Expenses: Some expenses are concrete, while others can be moving targets. Take everything into consideration when coming up with a figure.
  • Don’t Forget Other Expenditures: Items like computers, company vehicles, and furniture need to be factored into budgeting.
  • Calculate Your Cash Flow: Generating your existing income statement is essential to determining your projected cash flow for the next year.
  • Be Conservative in Your Budget: It’s great to have positive projections for the next year but be realistic too. Leave some wiggle room just in case company goals are not met.
  • Start Planning Early: Ideally, you want to begin talking about the budget in October to ensure there is as much detail as possible. However, it’s never too late to start as an annual budget should be monitored and adjusted as needed.
  • Monitor and Evaluate: Don’t go through the process of creating a budget just to forget about it in a few months. It’s important to monitor your budget to see how things are trending and evaluate if any changes need to made.

End-Year Tips:

Open Enrollment

Open enrollment is a huge and overwhelming part of your yearly HR tasks - but it doesn’t have to be. Ask yourself the following questions and consider using a unified solution that can simplify your benefits administration:

  • What is your open enrollment process currently like?
  • How many transactions are involved in your enrollment process?
  • How confident are you with your current
    enrollment process?
  • What happens if you do or don’t make a change?
  • What are the long-term effects of the changes made?
Download the Open Enrollment Guide

A core HR solution using a centralized database that includes benefits administration with carrier connections for transmission of paperwork to benefits providers makes open enrollment a much easier process to manage.
