Tax Information and Deductions

Where do I find my W-2?

For each year that you were enrolled to receive your W-2/W-2c electronically, you will be able to view the document in UCPath Online

Navigate to Income & Taxes > View Online W-2/W-2c.

Timing: W2s will be provided by UCPath Center by January 31st.

Former Employees: you can find your W-2 in the Former Employee Portal

Please note that W-2 statements from 2019 and prior years can be found in At Your Service Online (AYSO) if you were enrolled to receive the form electronically.

How do I enroll to receive my W-2 electronically?

Visit UCPath and click on Income & Taxes > Enroll to receive W-2/W-2C

  • Verify your current status. If your current status says CONSENT RECEIVED, then you do not have to do anything – you are already enrolled.

  • If your current status is blank, then you must follow the directions on the screen to sign up.

  • Check that your email address is up-to-date.

Once you’ve signed up, all notifications about your W-2/W-2c will be sent to your preferred email address on file in UCPath.

How long are W-2's kept online?

W-2s are kept online for 3 years in UCPath (and AYSO).

Where do I find my 1095?

Unlike the W-2 form, 1095 forms are for your information and records only. Read more about the IRS 1095 Forms.

UC Berkeley employees will receive printed copies via U.S. mail. Online access is not available through UCPath. You may receive an additional 1095-B form directly from your health care provider. 

Navigate to Income & Taxes > View Online 1095-C.

Please note that 1095s from 2019 and prior years can be found in At Your Service Online (AYSO) if you were enrolled to receive your W-2 form electronically.
