Form I-9 Update Available in Avionté Knowledge Base

An update to the Form I-9 completion options has been made under List C specific to the selection of an unrestricted Social Security Number (SSN). Additional data enhancements have been made to update Avionté when the SSN is entered on the form. The updated Form I-9 can be referenced within the Avionté Knowledge Base.

Note that the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) extended the expiration date of the I-9 from 7/31/2026 to 5/31/2027. Since both forms bear an edition date of 8/1/2023, either form may be used until it expires, however, the newest version must be used after July 31, 2026. Avionté will update the form prior to that date to remain compliant.

IRS Released Draft 2024 ACA Reporting Forms

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has released draft versions of 2024 Affordable Care Act (ACA) forms. However, instructions for these forms are yet to be released. The 1094-C and 1095-C forms are used by applicable large employers (ALEs) who must offer minimum essential coverage that is affordable and that provides a minimum value to full-time employees and their dependents.

While no major changes were made to the draft versions of the forms for 2024 reporting, it is notable that additional changes could be made once the forms and instructions are finalized and released. Refer to the IRS website for the draft versions of the 1094-C and 1095-C forms.
