On December 18, President Obama signed bipartisan legislation for a year-end spending and tax package. As part of the package, Congress enacted a two-year delay of the ACA Excise Tax (“Cadillac Plan Tax”) provision. As such, the tax now goes into effect after December 31, 2019 (and not after December 31, 2017 as currently scheduled). This is welcomed news for employers who are currently looking at mechanisms to mitigate this potential tax burden.
