Summary

Issuers of certified long-term care insurance who provide a premium statement to a purchaser must file a report with the IRS by February 1 of the following year. The report gives the issuer's name and taxpayer ID, a statement that the coverage is certified long-term care insurance, the owner's name, who is covered and their relationship to the owner, and the premiums paid for the year. The issuer must also give each person named a written statement showing the issuer's contact information and the total premiums and charges paid that year. If a policy covers more than one person, only the share of the premium for that insured person is reported. If you ask for your statement before the end of the year, the issuer must provide it then and send the IRS a copy.
