The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has granted an extension on producing and filing the 1095-C tax form. As such, the 1095-C tax form is not required for full-time, benefits-eligible employees to file 2015 taxes.
Kent State University will still make the 1095-C form available to employees as soon as possible, and will file the forms with the IRS once they are completed.
There is a box on the 1040 tax form that should be checked if you had “qualifying health care coverage” for all of 2015.
