View and Correct ACA Data Transmission Status

View and Correct ACA Data Transmission Status

  • Schedule an integration to transmit 1094-C and 1095-C data to the IRS.
  • Security:
    Process: ACA Tax Filing 1094-C/1095-C - USA
    domain in the Benefits functional area.
When you, or a third-party ACA Software Partner, transmit 1094-C and 1095-C forms, the IRS responds immediately upon receiving the data. While the IRS might take several days to process large volumes of data, you can view returned data and correct erroneous 1094-C and 1095-C forms. Internal transmissions are transmissions that you send. An ACA Software Partner manages external transmissions for you, including troubleshooting and resubmitting rejected transmissions.
  1. Access the
    ACA Transmission Status Report
    .
  2. As you complete this task, consider:
    Option Description

    The type of external state and federal transmissions. The value can be:
    • Original
      : The transmission by the ACA Software Partner for either state or IRS filing.
    • Correction
      : A transmission that the ACA Software Partner has corrected and resubmitted.
    • Replacement
      : A transmission that the ACA Software Partner has sent as a replacement for an erroneous transmission.
    Correction
    For internal transmissions, indicates that the transmission type is a correction.
    Transmission Status
    Indicates if the IRS or state entity has accepted the transmission. The value can be either
    Accepted
    or
    Accepted with Errors
    .
  3. To view errors for internal transmissions:
    1. Click
      View Integration Event
      to display transmission errors or 1095-C records with errors.
    2. Select any 1095-C error record to view that worker's 1095-C information.
    3. Click
      View 1095-C
      to view the 1095-C form data for a worker or external recipient.
    4. Click
      View Transmission
      or
      View Authoritative Transmission
      to view transmission errors and included 1095-C records with errors for a worker or an external recipient.
  4. Correct the errors in the 1095-C records:
    • For worker 1094-C and 1095-C data, access the
      Create ACA 1095-C/1094-C Data (Corrections)
      task.
    • For external recipient 1094-C and 1095-C data, edit the EIB spreadsheet.
    Wait until all the transmissions are complete with an
    Accepted
    or
    Accepted with Errors
    status before you create the corrected 1095-C records.
  5. Launch an integration to send the corrected data to the IRS after the IRS has completed processing all your data.
