Email Subject:  IMPORTANT TAX RETURN DOCUMENT AVAILABLE

Email Body:

Fabrikam is pleased to offer 1095-C statements via e-mail this year instead of the traditional paper copy! Benefits to receiving your 1095-C by e-mail are:

You may decline the electronic 1095-C and continue to receive a paper copy of your 1095-C by either not replying or by replying and stating:

“I do not want to receive my 1095-C electronically.”

Sample PDF Consent Form

The following text is an example only for a PDF consent form.

If you would like to receive your 1095-C by e-mail, you must reply to this message and place the following text in your reply:

“I agree to accept my 1095-C statement electronically at this e-mail address.” (Or, you may specify a different e-mail address).

You may decline the electronic 1095-C and continue to receive a paper copy of your 1095-C by either not replying or by replying and stating:

“I do not want to receive my 1095-C electronically.”

Please note you will receive a paper copy of your 1095-C unless you specify differently prior to 01/15/2022.  Consent is for one year only and consent will be required again next year.

You may revoke your consent for an electronic 1095-C delivery prior to January 15, 2022 by contacting the payroll department at w2consent@fabrikam.com or at 555-555-5555, ext. 555.  Withdrawing consent by January 15, 2022 will be for this year only and does not apply to any 1095-C documents you have already received.
Conditions under which 1095-Cs will no longer be furnished electronically may include:
(List all reasons – for example, termination of employment).

E-Mail addresses used for electronic delivery may be changed prior to January 15, 2022 by contacting the payroll department at w2consent@fabrikam.com or at 555-555-5555, ext. 555.

When you receive your 1095-C electronically, it will be attached to an e-mail as a PDF file – much like the one you are currently reading.  You will need PDF reading software (such as Adobe Acrobat Reader) and the hardware necessary to run the PDF reader software.  If you are reading this on your own computer after having opened this attached via your e-mail then you meet the hardware and software requirements for receiving your electronic 1095-C.
