In the coming days, you will receive the 2025 Tax Return Document (Form 1095-C) for yourself and/or your dependents from the Benefits Service Center. Depending on your communication preference, you will receive the form by U.S. mail or an email notification when it is available in the Benefits Portal. The email will come from Benefits Service Center no-reply@paperlessemployee.com.  Please rest assured that this is an official County message and not a phishing attempt.
