HEALTH CARE REFORM LARGELY UPHELD: HIGH COURT VALIDATES TAXES

   

On June 28, the Supreme Court decided that the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (together the ACA) are largely constitutional. The ACA contains a broad array of taxes that impact both individuals as well as employers and the Court's ruling validates these new tax provisions. Some of the new tax provisions went into effect in either 2011 or 2012, but many become effective in 2013 and thereafter. For a summary of some of the key tax provisions, click here.

INDIANA SALES/ WITHHOLDING TAX FILING CHANGES

   

This year the Indiana legislature passed a few laws that change the way business taxpayers will be required to file and remit sales and withholding taxes. The changes are as follows:

  • Effective July 1, 2012, anyone who is required to file more than 25 W-2, 1099-R, or WH-18 statements must file them electronically.
  • Effective Jan. 1, 2013, all retail merchants must report and remit sales tax electronically.
  • Effective Jan. 1, 2013, all withholding agents must report and remit withholding taxes electronically.
  • Effective Jan. 1, 2013, quarterly withholding filings will be eliminated.

Thus, beginning next year, all sales and withholding taxes will have to be remitted via the Department's INtax application or an electronic funds transfer (EFT). Additionally, businesses will be required to file their sales and withholding electronically, which can include using vendors certified by the Department or the Department's free INtax application.

 

More information, including ways that practitioners can use INtax on behalf of their clients, can be found here:
