Yesterday, the Service issued a flurry of IRS Notices under the Affordable Care Act.
IRS Notice 2012-31 describes possible approaches to determining minimum value under an eligible employer-sponsored plan. A large employer may be assessed a penalty under the Affordable Care Act if any full-time employee cannot enroll in coverage that provides minimum value. Comments are requested by June 11. http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-drop/n-12-31.pdf IRS Notices 2012-32 and 2012-33 request comments on Section 6055 and 6056. Both sections require insurers and self-insured plans to file annual returns reporting specific information for certain applicable individuals who are enrolled in coverage. Comments are due by June 11. http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-drop/n-12-32.pdf http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-drop/n-12-33.pdfDisclaimer
While we are pleased to have you contact us by telephone, surface mail, electronic mail, or by facsimile transmission, contacting Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton LLP or any of its attorneys does not create an attorney-client relationship. The formation of an attorney-client relationship requires consideration of multiple factors, including possible conflicts of interest. An attorney-client relationship is formed only when both you and the Firm have agreed to proceed with a defined engagement.
DO NOT CONVEY TO US ANY INFORMATION YOU REGARD AS CONFIDENTIAL UNTIL A FORMAL CLIENT-ATTORNEY RELATIONSHIP HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED.
If you do convey information, you recognize that we may review and disclose the information, and you agree that even if you regard the information as highly confidential and even if it is transmitted in a good faith effort to retain us, such a review does not preclude us from representing another client directly adverse to you, even in a matter where that information could be used against you.
