Here's how you know

If you had job-based health coverage

Depending on the kind of job-based coverage you had (including COBRA or retiree coverage), you may get one of these from your employer or insurance company:
  • Form 1095-B, Health Coverage
  • Form 1095-C, Employer-Provided Health Insurance Offer and Coverage
If you don’t get either form, don’t worry. Some employers don’t provide either form to their employees. You don’t need one to file your taxes.
Notice:
Have coverage through the SHOP Marketplace?
The SHOP Marketplace doesn’t provide 1095 tax forms. Contact your employer or your insurance company with questions.

1. If you get Form 1095-B or Form 1095-C

  • You should have it by mid-March.
  • Read Parts II and IV on Form 1095-B or Parts II and III on Form 1095-C to find information about:
    • Your job-based insurance offer and 2023 coverage
    • Covered individuals and the months they had coverage

2. Complete your tax return
