IRS Form 1095-C not required to file taxes

The IRS requires Purdue, as an employer, to report whether an employee and dependents (if applicable) had health coverage in 2018. Therefore, employees will be receiving a Form 1095-C, which details whether they had an offer of health coverage from Purdue and during which months.

Employees will receive this form in the mail by Monday (March 4); however, submission of the 1095-C is not required to complete a tax return -- taxes may be filed as normal.

Forms can be accessed online this year through Benefitfocus by following these steps: Log in and click the gold “To enroll” button, then select “View Tax Documents” under My Documents in the menu on the left side of the page. 

Note: Graduate staff with coverage in 2018 will receive this form from the student plan administrator, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield.

Questions can be directed to Human Resources at 765-494-2222 or hr@purdue.edu with “Form 1095-C” in the subject line.
