Information About 1095-C Tax Form

Under the Affordable Care Act (ACA), Kent State University full-time employees will receive an additional tax form. The new tax form, called the 1095-C tax form, contains important information about medical coverage offered to our employees and their dependents. 

The purpose of this 1095-C tax form is to report employer-provided health insurance coverage, or "proof of coverage" to the IRS.

The Internal Revenue Service granted an extension on producing and filing the 1095-C tax form.  As such, this form was not required for full-time, benefit-eligible employees to file 2015 taxes.

A printed copy of your 1095-C will be sent to your home address by first class mail.   You may also view your electronic 1095-C tax form in FlashLine by following the steps below:

  1. Log into FlashLine
  2. Select the "My HR" tab
  3. In the employment detail channel, select "Tax Forms"
  4. Select “Electronic W-2 & 1095-C Consent”
  5. Consent to receive 1095-C electronically
  6. Return to the “Tax Forms” menu
  7. Select “1095 Employer-Provided Health Insurance Offer and Coverage Statement”
  8. Select “Tax Year 2015”
  9. Display
