It is almost time for HIRD filing. Massachusetts state law requires employers to file a HIRD form – which contains information about employer sponsored benefit offerings -- on an annual basis.
HIRD filing applies to all employers with six or more Massachusetts employees - in any month – during the 12 months preceding December 15, 2020. The filing is done through MassTaxConnect which will be available for MA HIRD filing beginning on November 15, 2020 through December 15, 2020.
How will ADP TotalSource be assisting with this filing?
ADP TotalSource will:
· send out communications to our clients who are required to file notifying them of the requirement; and
· provide applicable employers with the necessary data to complete their HIRD Filing.
This information will be available shortly before the system is open for filing. Please reach out to your dedicated HRPB with any questions.
Important Reminders/Tips:
· ADP TotalSource will not be completing the filing. Employers will need to do their own filing.
· A Mass Tax Connect login is needed to complete the filing so if you do not have a login then one will need to be created.
· A separate login is needed for each FEIN.
