I am an employee of a C-Corp with no ownership or officer status. My employer is not required under the Affordable Care Act to provide Health Insurance through an employer based plan as he has fewer than 50 employees.(only 10 employees total) My employer offered health insurance payments to all employees in 2014 per the company handbook. The health insurance policy, in my name was paid directly by my employer to the health insurance provider Blue Cross/Blue Shield. This is a qualifying policy as per ACA.
Our tax accountant has put the amount my employer paid for my health insurance policy on my wages for 2014 in line 1 as taxable income. Everything I have found online and from local CPA's has said this is not correct. Can you advise on this?
