Alert: New Requirement for Reporting Cost of Group Insurance on W2

Written by Mike Renner | Wed, Jan 02, 2013

When Must Employers Report: 

Large employers, defined as those that filed 250 or more Form W‐2’s for the 2011 tax year, must report the cost of health insurance coverage on 2012 W‐2’s. Small employers (those that filed 250 or fewer W‐2’s for the 2011 tax year) must report this information on their 2013 Form W‐2’s. Employers issue Form W‐2’s in January following the tax year, so this means the first required reporting starts in January 2013 for large employers.
