Year-End Tax Forms-W2/1095-C

W-2’s have been mailed today for all employees (including student employees). You can expect to receive your W-2 within the next few days. Electronic W-2’s will not be available through Banner Self Service. If you need a replacement W-2 from this year or a prior year, please contact Payroll at 216.397.4456, or 216.397.4457.

Full-time benefit-eligible employees will also be receiving the form 1095-C “Employer-Provided Health Insurance Offer and Coverage.” The IRS has revised the deadline for employers to mail this form to March 2, 2017. It is our intention to mail this form to JCU employees as soon as possible, and well in advance of the March 2 deadline. Per the IRS, it is not necessary to wait for your 1095-C to file a tax return for 2016, and this form does not need to be attached to your return. You will use the information on this form to verify that you, your spouse, and any dependents had coverage for each month during the year.

For a further explanation of form 1095-C, please refer to the IRS website:
