How to enable Online Access that allows employees to view and download their ACA forms?

TaxBandits’ online Access is a feature that allows your employees to access their ACA forms online using the secure portal. As the employer/payer, you will need to enable this feature to provide online access to your employees. 

However, before the employee can access their forms online, they must give their consent. When you enable Online Access, they will receive an email prompting them to do so. Once consent is given, they will have access to their forms. 

You can enable Online Access services at different stages of the filing: 

• While preparing the ACA form.
• After transmitting the Form.

While preparing ACA forms:

• After completing the federal and state filing, you will be directed to the form distribution page, where you can enable online access for your employee.  
• There, select BanditShare (Online Access) and proceed with the next step.
