Form 5500 Preparation
The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Form 5500 is used to report information concerning employee benefit plans. All employers with 100 or more employees who participate in a health and welfare benefit plan must complete and submit an IRS Form 5500 with applicable Schedules within 7 months of the Plan year’s end.

TASC’s service features user-friendly electronic tools that save time and money, assistance in collecting needed data from insurance carrier and/or service providers, and complete preparation of an IRS Form 5500 and all Schedules, along with filing instructions and deadlines for submission.
