If an individual calls a carrier/employer to request a copy of a prior year Form MA 1099-HC, does a report need to be sent to DOR for the prior years Form MA 1099-HC?
To clarify: You can’t commingle Tax Years, and we even designed the XML schema to make sure of that. But you do need to be able to send data for prior tax years, if it wasn’t actually sent that year. So, let’s say in 2012 a former customer asks you to generate a Form MA 1099-HC for 2007. If the carrier had already sent it in 2007, send DOR nothing new — that data from 2007 will still be here in our database. If you didn’t send anything to us electronically in 2007 for some reason, it should come in its own transmission/file, with the Tax Year element set accordingly. Carriers may also use the 1099-HC Mapped Data Upload utility to send additions to prior years’ data.
