Self Service Electronic 1095-C

Benefits of Receiving Form 1095-C Electronically

There are multiple benefits to receiving an electronic Form 1095-C:

• Earlier access to the Form 1095-C.
• No possibility an employee's Form 1095-C might be lost, stolen, delayed or misplaced by the U.S. mail service or by the employee, once received.
• If an employee misplaces their 1095-C, they can obtain another copy the same day.
  
• Access can be attained even if the employee is not presently at his/her residence, for example, if participating in a University foreign program.  Access can be attained from any PC with internet connection.

Disclosure Notices

An employee who consents to receiving his/her Form 1095-C electronically will not receive a paper copy of the 1095-C. If an employee does not consent, he/she will continue to receive a paper copy of the 1095-C. Once an employee has signed up, the consent is valid for all subsequent years unless the employee chooses to withdraw consent.

An employee who chooses to receive his/her Form 1095-C electronically can also receive a paper copy of the 1095-C by contacting the Human Resources in writing. This may be done via email to: benefits@bgsu.edu or U.S. Mail to: Office of Human Resources, Bowling Green State University, 1851 N. Research Dr., Bowling Green, OH, 43403. Request for a paper copy does not withdraw the employee's consent for electronic delivery of future 1095-C statements.

An employee may withdraw his/her consent by at anytime through the online system. If consent is withdrawn, it will only be effective for any Form 1095-C's not yet issued.

The University will not provide the Form 1095-C electronically to an individual who has terminated his/her employment with Bowling Green State University. These individuals will receive paper copies via U.S. mail.
