The Affordable Care Act (ACA) requirements for restaurants are complex and time-consuming.

Yearly testing is required and if a restaurant, or group of commonly owned restaurants, meets the IRS defined criteria of 50 employees, health insurance must be offered plus yearly forms filed and distributed to all full-time employees.

Kallas has offered this service for all our clients since the law was passed.

Unfortunately, starting with the 2022 reporting year, for those clients who do not use the Kallas Payroll service, we can no longer prepare their ACA forms.

Obtaining records from other payroll companies has become a problem.  Some of the other payroll companies do not generate the needed forms and some national companies make it intentionally difficult so you are forced into signing up for their expensive ACA service.

If you are using a non-Kallas payroll service and you are liable for ACA, please contact your payroll company now in January and talk to them about their ACA service.

Or, as a better option, Kallas would welcome your payroll business and your ACA obligations would be covered by knowledgeable accountants. 

If you have any questions, call Jordan or George at 313-962-6000.
