For tax year 2015, millions of Americans will be getting a new tax form related to health care reform measures.
Will you know what to do with yours when it arrives?
The Affordable Health Care Act mandated three new tax forms to be used as a kind of proof of insurance so taxpayers may avoid paying a penalty for failure to be covered. They are:
- Form 1095-A, sent to those who purchase health insurance on government marketplaces.
- Form 1095-B, sent to employees of businesses with fewer than 50 full-time employees
- Form 1095-C, sent to employees of businesses with more than 50 full-time employees
