US 1094-C Employer Report

The US 1094-C Employer Report flow uses the latest Affordable Care Act (ACA) archive info to generate the 1094-C electronic data file for all eligible employees in XML format.

To run this flow:

  1. From My Client Groups, click Payroll.

  2. Click Submit a Flow.

  3. Select your US legislative data group (LDG).

Before you start

Run the archive flow to ensure you capture the latest updates of the ACA data. There's no need to run the archive flow again if:

  1. You ran it before and issued 1095-C forms to employees.

  2. There are no changes to employee or employer data.
