Form 1095-C - Human Resources at Ohio State
Form 1095-C
Ohio State provides you with a tax form, called a 1095-C, as part of our reporting requirements under the Affordable Care Act (ACA). The 1095-C contains important information about medical coverage offered to you and your dependents by Ohio State. (View a blank Form 1095-C)
You can choose to receive the form online or by mail. Receiving your Form 1095-C online instead of by mail is:
- Faster
- More secure
- Available anytime via an internet connection
- More environmentally sustainable
Equifax is Ohio State’s selected vendor to provide 1095-C forms. In order to receive an electronic copy of your 1095-C instead of a paper copy, employees can consent through the Equifax website, Tax Form Management. You can access the website securely through Workday.
- On the Workday home page, click the Benefits icon, located within the Applications section.
- On the Benefits page in Workday, select Form 1095-C, listed under External Links.
Your 1095-C for the previous tax year will be available by the end of January. If you provided consent, Equifax will email you when your form is available. If no consent is provided, your form will be mailed to the home address on file in Workday.
Contact a tax advisor for questions about how the tax form may impact you or visit irs.gov or healthcare.gov.

How to Log In to Equifax
- Go to mytaxform.com and enter Ohio State’s Company Code, 10380.
- Enter your OSU Employee ID (if you do not remember your OSU Employee ID call HR Connection at 614-247-myHR (6947)).
- Enter your PIN, which will be something that you previously established when accessing your 1095-C (or W-2) tax information. You may be prompted to reset your PIN.
- If you are a new user, you may be asked to provide basic personal information, including address, phone and email options.
- If you are a returning user, you may be asked to review existing profile information, including contact methods, and indicate your primary address, email, and phone preferences. NOTE: It is possible that some returning users may be treated like first-time users if they choose “Forgot User ID or PIN” or if our protocols identify a need for additional screening.
- Next, you may be challenged to verify your identity via the One-Time Passcode (OTP) process.
- Screen prompts will walk you through the process to deliver an OTP that will be sent via phone, text (SMS), or email. You may select the delivery method, and you must remain in the application (do not log out, do not close browser) while waiting for an OTP to be sent. Passcodes are sent in “real time,” and you should enter the received passcode immediately into the application you are trying to access.
- If you cannot receive an OTP via a real-time method, an OTP may be sent via U.S. Mail. Please keep in mind that it may take several days for you to receive the passcode. You will have 12 days from the generation date to receive and input the code.
- Once your identity is verified, you may be prompted to reset your PIN. You may also be asked if you’d like us to remember the device you are on to make future logins easier. Select “Yes” if you are logging on from a device you use frequently. Select “No” if you are logging on from a public device, or one you do not plan on using in the future. Once you have successfully logged into your account, you will be directed to the Main Menu.
- If your identity cannot be verified, you will be directed back to your employer for further assistance.
If you have problems logging in, please contact HR Connection at (614) 247-myHR (6947).
If you miss the consent deadline for the preceding tax year, your form will be mailed to the home address on file in the HR system. You can still provide consent to access your form online, and you will receive both mailed and electronic form. If you would like to provide electronic consent you may do so at any time.
