The Internal Revenue Service has posted information on how a nonprofit under Section 501(c) can claim the Small Business Health Care Tax Credit by filing a Form 990-T with an attached Form 8941 that explains how the claimed credit was calculated.

The credit, which is designed to encourage small businesses to offer coverage to their employees, stipulates that the employer must cover half or more of coverage costs for some employees based on the single rate. Companies must have fewer than 25 full-time workers, or the equivalent, to qualify.
