The following are Avionté's recommendations for correcting data and producing proper ACA reporting. Consult legal counsel, your broker, a tax professional or contact the IRS directly for questions regarding insurance offerings or ACA compliance.
See the Greenshades 1095-C and 1094-C Filing Instructions help article for instructions on the initial filing process.
For a list of common errors and information on the corresponding corrections, see the Greenshades E-Filing Submissions - Common Errors and Corrections help article.

Submission Status
Note: Greenshades Tax Filing Center separates the corrected 1094-C and corrected 1095-C submissions automatically and also includes a non-authoritative (transmittal) 1094-C with the corrected 1095-C submission.
Status | Description | Additional Information | Resubmission Deadlines |
Acknowledged (Accepted) | The e-file was successfully submitted to the IRS and processed without any errors. | No additional action is required and the submission is complete. | None |
Acknowledged with errors (Accepted with errors) | The e-file was successfully submitted to the IRS. It was processed as "acknowledged," however the IRS returned at least one error. The error returned was not severe enough to prevent submission or trigger a rejection. |
|
The IRS requires e-files with this status be corrected and returned "as soon as possible." The IRS does not have a set deadline for when the corrections need to be submitted. Submit the corrections using the correction process outlined in the Greenshades E-Filing Submissions - Fixing an "Acknowledged with Errors" Status article. |
Rejected | The e-file was successfully submitted to the IRS. During processing the IRS found an error (or errors) severe enough to trigger a rejection. |
|
60 calendar days from the original submission date. Submit a replacement file using the correction process outlined in the Greenshades E-Filing Submissions - Fixing a "Rejected" Status article. |
Errored | This refers to the Greenshades status of "errored." An error occurred in the e-file (or e-files) before being successfully submitted to the IRS. |
|
The file has not yet been submitted to the IRS. The original submission dates still apply. |
Prerequisites for Re-Submitting Corrections
- A previous submission must have been filed with Greenshades using the Tax Filing Center. If the Tax Filing Center was not used to file, do not use this guide and instead contact Avionté for further instructions. Greenshades will check to ensure there is a valid 1095-C XML file being fed into the Tax Filing Center.
- Corrections can only be made for submission statuses of:
- Acknowledged
- Acknowledged with Errors
- Rejected
