$95 for an individual, $2000 for an employer.
somarco said:Yes Tater, it is a formula, and yes, it does increase over time. The folks in DC can really make this complicated.
Much easier to just say $95 and leave it at that.
Talking with a lefty the other day who thought the individual penalty was $10,000.
Same for the $2000 on groups of 50+. It increases over time.
This is crazy. The IRS will be sending people who were unemployed and without insurance in 2014 a penalty-tax bill in January 2015 for $1,140. ($95 x 12). If he/she remained long-term unemployed in 2015, the January 2016 penalty-tax bill balloons to $3,900. Still less than an exchange-based health insurance policy, but oh what anger boxing people into a corner like this will generate.
Remember the guy who flew his plane into an IRS building in Florida about 8 years ago? That was nothing compared to what we'll be reading about after 2014.
