How does Namely distribute 1095-C forms to employees?

Employees can access their 1095s, as well as opt-in or out of electronic-only delivery, by going to My Profile > Payroll > Year End Documents.

You will receive a downloadable file of 1095-C forms once you process your ACA filing, and the IRS accepts your submission. You can then distribute these copies directly to your employees as needed.

You are required to print and mail Forms 1095 to employees who do not consent to an online-only copy of their Form 1095 (or who make no paper or digital selection in the system). Once the IRS reviews your ACA submission for the tax year filed, there will be a link available in the ACA landing page that will read 1095s to Mail.  This link will download a full PDF of all employees' Forms 1095 for those employees needing a paper form. 

Tip:

The 1095-C will automatically print in a 8.5" x 11" landscape format. The form will fit in any standard business envelope (by folding in thirds) or any standard booklet envelope (by folding in half). These forms are not compatible with window envelops and labels will need to be printed for the envelopes by your organization.

You can also use the report in Namely Payroll > Date Range > W-2 & 1095-C Consent Status Report to review which employees have consented or not.
