The federal filing deadline for 2024 income taxes is April 15, 2025. As of January 17, 2025, state income tax filing deadlines are as follows:
To receive your tax forms online, rather than through the mail, visit MCPS Hub+ and select 2024 & Prior ePaystub and Tax Documents under the Me tab. Log in using your MCPS username and password. Follow detailed instructions for both your W-2 and 1095-C. Learn more about online access to tax forms.
Calendar year 2024 W-2 tax forms will be distributed electronically in January 2025. Those employees who authorized web delivery of their tax forms by the announced deadline can expect to access their W-2s sooner than those who opted to receive a hard copy.
Once available, be sure to check your W-2 form for accuracy.
Update your address, as needed, by visiting Hub+ and selecting the Personal Information tile under the Me tab. Refer to the Add, Edit or Delete Personal Contact Information section of the Employee User Guide. An incorrect name spelling or address does not invalidate the W-2 form.
A separate W-2 will be issued to employees who had state income taxes withheld from more than two states. Tax-sheltered annuity deductions are excluded from gross wages for Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia, but not for Pennsylvania.
If you do not receive your W-2, or misplace your W-2, you must download and print a copy by visiting Hub+ and selecting the 2024 & Prior ePaystub and Tax Documents tile. Log in using your MCPS username and password. Review the disclosure statement and detailed instructions for obtaining a duplicate W-2 online.
Worker's compensation payments are not considered wages and are not included on the W-2 form. The W-2 has been adjusted to exclude worker's compensation payments and the refunded taxes.
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires employers to send Form 1095-C to certain employees. If you are an MCPS employee who worked an average of 30 or more hours per week and/or was enrolled in an MCPS-provided medical insurance plan at any time during 2024, you will receive a Form 1095-C. Form 1095-Cs will be mailed by March 1, 2025.
If you receive a 1095-C, it will contain important information about your health care coverage in 2024. The form serves as proof of insurance for the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Although you may choose to submit your 1095-C to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) with your 2024 income tax return, you are not required to. Therefore, should you submit your tax return prior to receiving your 1095-C, you will NOT need to amend your tax return to include it. MCPS will submit the information from your 1095-C to the IRS.
As with your W-2, be sure to check your 1095-C for accuracy.
If you do not receive your 1095-C, or you misplace your 1095-C, you may download and print a copy by visiting Hub+ and selecting the 2024 & Prior ePaystub and Tax Documents tile. Log in using your MCPS username and password. Review detailed instructions for obtaining a duplicate 1095-C online.
