Follow these instructions when you’re ready to use AIR (Affordable Care Act Information Returns) to electronically submit the ACA (Affordable Care Act) Forms 1094 and 1095 to the IRS.

Before you get started

Use Internet Explorer 8, 9, or 10 (e-services now supports up to Internet 11); Microsoft Edge, Firefox, Safari 9, or Chrome.
