The IRS.gov has information about the Affordable Care Act tax provisions in both

English and Spanish

to inform and educate the public on how the health care law may

affect them. The main Spanish pages include:

• Individuals and Families - Including the premium tax credit and the

individual shared responsibility provision and exemptions from that provision.

• Employers - The health care law contains many tax and other provisions for

Large Employers and Small Employers.

By making its products available in Spanish, the IRS is providing relevant information

about the law and its provisions, legal guidance, the latest news, frequently asked

questions and links to additional resources to a significant portion of taxpayers with

limited English proficiency. As many as 1 in 4 uninsured individuals who are eligible for

coverage through the Health Insurance Marketplace nationwide are Hispanic.

In addition to the Commissioner’s messages, the agency has several other videos

and

audio files in Spanish on the health care law and a variety of other relevant and useful

tax topics.

Taxpayers can also subscribe to receive brief tips in Spanish on a variety of tax issues

by email, or visit the IRS Spanish Newsroom for the most up-to-date information from
