Dependents are a number one priority, so make sure their Social Security numbers are correct in Penn’s benefits records. To check the accuracy of your dependents’ records for this calendar year, log into Workday and verify your dependents’ Social Security numbers before December 31, 2022.

For tax reporting purposes, including the 1095-C form, Penn needs accurate dependent Social Security numbers. The IRS 1095-C form mailed to certain benefits-eligible faculty and staff includes information about the health insurance coverage offered to you by Penn and information for each of your family members enrolled under a Penn benefits plan. Blank or incorrect Social Security numbers for dependents may potentially affect their receipt of a COBRA health coverage packet when they reach age 26, as well as the accuracy of your 1095-C form.
