__End of “Good Faith Effort”__\\
The IRS has not extended “good faith transition relief” for the 2018 reporting year and is not expected to do so. In previous reporting years, the IRS did not penalize employers for incorrect or incomplete 1095-C and 1094-C forms, as long as they were able to prove that a “good faith” effort was made to comply with the ACA requirements.
