2024 has ended and tax season is just around the corner – it’s time to start planning! Take a helpful step toward making tax time stress-free by opting in to receive your W-2 and 1095-C forms electronically.
As an active UNM employee or retiree, selecting the electronic option via LoboWeb improves your online experience with easy and early access, further protects your personal data, and achieves efficiency by reducing paper use, printing, and mailing costs.
Deadline to complete your electronic consent is midnight, Monday, Jan. 20, 2025.
Electronic distribution is NOT required, but you must provide electronic consent for UNM to provide forms to you electronically. If you consent to receive your 2024 form(s) electronically, it’s important to remember that you will not receive paper copies.
Opted in already? You do not need to complete your eConsent again, but we encourage you to review your preferences in LoboWeb to confirm you opted in for electronic delivery.
After opting in, both tax forms will be available through LoboWeb on Jan. 31, 2025.
If you do not provide your eConsent, paper W-2 forms will be mailed via U.S. Postal Service to your home address on record no later than Jan. 31, 2025, and the 1095-C forms will be mailed in early February.
Complete the “Electronic Regulatory Consent” election by logging into LoboWeb via MyUNM. Watch Lucy Lobo’s video for step-by-step instructions on opting in for your electronic W-2 and 1095-C.
What if I want to receive my tax forms via U.S. Mail?
If you have previously opted in and want to change to paper, follow the steps in Lucy Lobo’s Video to deselect the “My Choice” checkboxes and click “Submit.” If you have not yet opted in and want to receive your forms via mail, you do not have to do anything other than verify your mailing address on file is correct.
Active employees and retirees can update their address through Demographic Self-Service.
