Form 1095-C Reporting
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) requires all applicable large employers (ALEs) with more than 50 full-time or full-time equivalent employees to offer employees the opportunity to enroll in employer-sponsored health care benefits.
The PPACA defines full-time employees as those working an average of 30 hours a week or 130 hours a month. Aside from full-time, regular employees, who are offered health care benefits, there may be seasonal or variable hour part-time employees in your organization who may or may not work enough hours to meet the full-time eligibility requirements during a given period. Under the PPACA, all ALEs are required to report health coverage information and issue Form 1095-C to employees.

Form 1095-C Data Requirement for Completion

Section Heading | How is the information populated? |
---|---|
Part I - Employee (Lines 1 - 6) |

Except for Zip Code, populated automatically based on information from the
deduction/benefit plan, benefit enrollment, payroll hours, and employee record. Note Benefits and payroll information must be managed in UKG Pro and auto-population settings enabled for Part II (System Configuration > System Settings > PPACA Reporting Settings). If benefits or payroll information is managed outside of UKG Pro, the data must be imported. |

Employee Offer and Coverage Information
UKG Pro enables employers to track offer and coverage information from the Offer of Coverage page on the employee record.

If you are unable to view or edit the Offer of Coverage page, contact your system administrator to enable access via role security.
1095-C Report Templates for Data Import
Use the People Analytics 1095-C report templates to import data not currently stored in UKG Pro. There are two sets of PPACA report templates, one for employees and another for non-employees.
Download Updated 1095-C Part II Templates
Beginning with the 2020 reporting year, all employers must download the updated employee and non-employee templates, which comply with the latest Form 1095-C, Part II requirements for ICHRA plan reporting. Even if ICHRA plans were not offered, employers who are importing data must use the latest templates going forward for all reporting years since the previous set of import templates are no longer valid.
Employee Templates
Two report templates help you gather required data to complete Form 1095-C for Parts II and III for employees who have existing records in UKG Pro. These report templates can be used with the Import tool.
- PPACA 1095-C Part II - Offer and Coverage Report Template
- PPACA 1095-C Part III - Covered Individuals Report Template
Non-Employee Templates
Three report templates help you gather required data to complete Form 1095-C for non-employees. A non-employee refers to any individual who does not have a record in UKG Pro and may include non-employee directors, retirees, COBRA beneficiaries, or dependents. All non-employees must have a valid social security number in order to receive a 1095-C. These report templates can be used with the Import tool.
- PPACA 1095-C Non-Employee Part I - Employee Info Report Template
- PPACA 1095-C Non-Employee Part II - Offer and Coverage Report Template
- PPACA 1095-C Non-Employee Part III - Covered Individuals Report Template
The process to follow for importing Form 1095-C information into UKG Pro involves four main steps:
Run a 1095-C Report Template for Employees
Use the People Analytics 1095-C report templates to import data not currently stored in UKG Pro for existing employees for Parts II and III.
The report includes employee information for the ALE member(s) selected, along with fields for you to enter the offer and coverage information. Any information already entered on an employee's Offer of Coverage page is included in the report.
If benefit or payroll information is managed outside of UKG Pro, the data must be imported for Part II.
To use the PPACA 1095-C report templates, ALE members must be configured in UKG Pro using the Applicable Large Employer Member business rule.
PPACA 1095-C Part II- Offer and Coverage Report Template
The PPACA 1095-C Part II - Offer and Coverage Report Template lists all employees assigned to an applicable large employer (ALE) Member.
The PPACA 1095-C Part II - Offer and Coverage Report Template includes any manually entered information in Part II of an employee's Offer of Coverage page (Employee Record > Benefits > Offer of Coverage). If information was not entered on an employee's record, then the fields will be blank when the report template is run.

Import Form 1095-C Data
The Import 1095-C File page (Reporting > PPACA > Import 1095-C File) enables you to perform a bulk import of Form 1095-C information into UKG Pro using People Analytics PPACA report templates.
Report templates provide you with a method to collect, track, and import offer of coverage information that is not stored in UKG Pro for both employees and non-employees. The templates are also used to adjust or replace information that has been manually entered or auto-populated on the Offer and Coverage page, if needed.
- Employee - refers to an individual who has or already had an employee record in UKG Pro, which includes employees of any status (active, terminated, leave of absence, and so on).
- Non-Employee - refers to an individual who does not have a record in UKG Pro, which may include non-employee directors, retirees, COBRA beneficiaries, and dependents. Non-employee data must always be updated using one of the Non-Employee report templates.
Report Template Type | Form 1095-C | Usage |
---|---|---|
Employee | Part II and III | Use employee templates for individuals who have a record in UKG Pro. When you run the PPACA report template for employees, any information that was previously entered on the Offer and Coverage page in UKG Pro is included in the report file. |
Non-Employee | Part I, II, and III | Use non-employee templates for individuals who do not have a record in UKG Pro (for example, non-employee directors, retirees, and COBRA
beneficiaries). Part I information must first be imported in order to establish the assignment of a non-employee ID in the system. You can then run report templates for Part II and Part III. |

Correction Process for Electronically Filed ACA Returns for E-Filers
Applicable large employers (ALEs) can use UKG Pro's correction process to correct previously filed ACA returns and file additional forms for missed individuals, when needed.
The correction process can only be initiated after original files have been transmitted electronically to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the ALE filing status is Accepted or Accepted with Errors.
When the IRS, the employer, or employee finds an error after the original Form Data Files have been filed and accepted by the IRS, complete the correction process in UKG Pro to produce corrected forms.
When to Start the Correction Process for E-Filers
E-Filers must monitor the filing status on the eFiling and Form Statuses page (Reporting > ACA Manager > Filing and History). In cases of filing errors, the filing status on the page is updated automatically to Accepted with Errors.
As an E-Filer, a returned status of Replacement Requested means that the original filing was rejected by the IRS and has not been filed. Because the original filing was not accepted, a correction process is not needed at this point. Submit a case with your ACA Benefits Specialist to receive follow up instructions.
To correct and finalize the Form 1095-C and/or Form 1094-C data, you must:
- Request Federal Error Data
- Initiate the correction process for an ALE
- Create additional and/or corrected Forms 1095-C via the Offer of Coverage page or using the import templates
- Regenerate Forms 1095-C and Forms 1094-C and review
- Make any additional changes to Forms 1095-C or Form 1094-C and regenerate, as needed
- Finalize Form 1094-C
- Print and/or distribute corrected forms, as needed
- Approve the ALE for e-filing for ACA Services to file the forms on your behalf
