Form 1095-C Employer-Provided Health Insurance Offer and Coverage

The Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires U.S. taxpayers to prove that they had health coverage in 2017 when filing their taxes for 2017.

Form 1095-C will be sent to employee work locations by February 15 for distribution. Employees may use this form as supporting documentation to complete their 2017 income tax return.

Employees who have already filed their tax return for 2017 may keep this form for their tax records.
