There’s a chance your request for reimbursement (on Form 941) of your COBRA subsidy could get bounced back by Feds.
A new notice from the Internal Revenue Service, CP 269C, is being sent to certain employers explaining that examiners are “reviewing” the claim and temporarily freezing the reimbursement.
So who gets picked for the notice and why? Employers whose 941’s tripped IRS’s “processing filters.”
Although IRS hasn’t said what sorts of errors could cause a notice to be sent, it did say that employers who receive a CP 269C don’t have to do anything until they’ve been contacted directly by an IRS examiner (usually within 30 days). At that time, the company will be asked to provide any additional info needed.
IRS will also send notices to reporting agents who are authorized to receive copies of their clients’ notices.
