The IRS is has once again provided an extra 30 days to get Form 1095 coverage notices to the enrollees, former enrollees, and other people who are supposed to receive the forms.

 

Originally, insurers and employer plans were supposed to get the 1095 notices for 2017 coverage to enrollees and former enrollees by Jan. 31, 2018. Coverage providers now have until March 2, 2018, to send the notices to the recipients.

 

Please note that the IRS did not make an adjustment to the official schedule for the IRS filing deadlines:

 

  • For organizations that file their returns on paper, 1095 form bundles for 2017 coverage will be due Feb. 28, 2018.

 

  • For organizations that use the electronic filing system, the 1095 bundles will be due April 2, 2018.
