There is a lot of information in the news and online about the health care law and its effect on your taxes. For the most up-to-date answers to questions you may have, visit IRS.gov/aca.
From A to Z and ISRP to MEC, the IRS website covers a wide range of health care topics and how they relate to your taxes.
The IRS knows that you want to understand how the health care law may affect you when filing your taxes next year. When questions come up, IRS.gov is a great place for you to begin finding the answers you need – when you need them.
