BUREAU OF INTERNAL REVENUE ISSUES ADVISORY ON CREDIT FOR SMALL
EMPLOYER HEALTH INSURANCE PREMIUMS
Internal Revenue Bureau Director Claudette Watson-Anderson on Monday
issued a reminder to employers of the requirements for the new credit
available for payments made for health insurance premiums. The new
credit is part of the Affordable Care Act and is available on the 2010
income tax returns. An employer will be eligible for the credit if
premiums were paid for employee health insurance coverage under a
qualifying arrangement; if the employer had fewer than 25 full-time
employees for the tax year; and if the employer paid annual average
wages of less than $50,000 per full time employee.
Employers
meeting these requirements will be eligible for the credit. Anderson
informed eligible small employers of the premium amounts that must be
used to determine the amount of credit for small employer health
insurance. The credit is 35% of the premiums paid or 25% for tax
exempt employers. However, there is a cap on the credit. For Virgin
Islands employers, the credit will be reduced if the premiums paid are
more than the following amounts: for Single coverage: $4,215; for
Family coverage: $9,365. Form 8941 is used to figure the credit for
each employer.
Anderson said
questions concerning the small employer health insurance premiums
should be directed to the Bureau’s Chief Counsel at (340) 715-1040,
ext. 2249 or (340) 714-9312.
