Do you know the new tax
requirements under the
Affordable Care Act 2015?
DFAS-SmartDocs@mail.mil
Under the Affordable Care Act (ACA), the federal
government, state governments, insurers, employ-
ers, and individuals are given shared responsibility
to reform and improve the availability, quality, and
affordability of health insurance coverage in the
United States.
For the 2015 tax year, Defense Finance and Ac-
counting Service (DFAS) is required to furnish a Form 1095 to each employee
that worked any full time hours. MyPay has been updated to allow you to elect
to receive this tax form electronically. Civilian employees are highly encour-
aged to log into myPay to turn on electronic delivery. Go to myPay and from
the main menu of myPay, select “Turn On/Off Hard Copy of IRS Form 1095.”
Electronic delivery is the fastest and most secure method to receive your
1095 once it becomes available in January of 2016. Please opt in to receive an
electronic copy no later than December 31, 2015.
Visit http://www.irs.gov/Affordable-Care-Act for more information on the
ACA and tax reporting. For additional details on the tax information you will
be receiving from DFAS, visit go.usa.gov/3pQUR.
If you have questions about logging into myPay and/or making changes to
your electronic elections in myPay, contact the DFAS Centralized Customer
Support Unit at 1-888-DFAS411 or 1-888-332-7411 and select option #5.
