You do not have to file Form 1095-C with the IRS, or enter it into TurboTax - there is no filing requirement for this particular form, or need to enter it in TurboTax  - just retain it for your records.

Please note that not all 1095 tax forms get reported to the IRS:

  • Only the 1095-A gets entered into TurboTax in the Health Insurance section
  • If you receive a Form 1095-B, entitled “Health Coverage”, the IRS does not need any details from this form, you can just retain for your records any 1095-B forms received from your health insurance company or government agency that sponsors your plan
  • If you have a 1095-C, a form entitled “Employer Provided Health insurance Offer and Coverage”, the IRS does not need any details from this form either.  You can keep any 1095-C forms which you receive from your employer, for your records.

So why does Turbotax say on their site the following.

(I was trying to enter that on their site, but i only got prompted for 1095-A)

When the 1095-C must go out

Sending out 1095-C forms became mandatory starting with the 2015 tax year. Employers send the forms not only to their eligible employees but also to the IRS. Employees are supposed to receive them by the end of January—so forms for 2019 would be sent in January 2020.

Employers have until the end of February to send them to the IRS if filing paper forms, or until the end of March if filing electronically. Employers with 250 or more forms must file them electronically. Those with fewer than 250 have the option of filing paper forms or filing electronically.

The 1095 C is not reported on your tax return any longer.  Any health insurance amounts that apply to the 1095-C are reported on your W-2.  

 

If you received a 1095-A, that information needs to be reported.
