Can Someone Please Help Me - 1095-A

Forum|Forum|4 years ago

The section for 1095-A begins by asking me if I received unemployment compensation for 2021. To which I answered yes, because I did.

Then it asks me if I got my 1095-A form and I do not have that form as I have the 1095-B. So I check the box that says "No I did not receive 1095-A"

Twice now when I filed the Federal and State, they both come back rejected. What am I suppose to do? I'm answering everything correctly.

Thank you.

Thank you all for the help. Upon further digging, I realized I moved and had 1095-A for my previous insurance which was from another state. I will update the answers tonight and keep you guys posted.

1095A has nothing to do with unemployment compensation. Did you get confused and answer a question about a 1099G? If you received unemployment compensation in 2021 you have to enter a 1099G.

A 1095 A is a document you receive if you had marketplace health insurance ("Obamacare") . If you did not have marketplace insurance and did not receive a 1095A you should say NO to the question about getting a 1095A.

If you only received a 1095B you do not even enter that anywhere.

If you have a 1099G for unemployment:

Enter your 1099G in Federal>Wages & Income>Unemployment

Thanks for the input.

No, I'm in the Medical 1095-A section.

It asks me first thing, and I am quoting the program, "Before we ask about your Form 1095-A, we need to ask about some other information

Did you or your spouse receive or were approved to receive, unemmployment compensation for any week beginning during 2021?"

I don't even know why it's asking me this in the 1095-A section of the program.

I have been rejected twice now and am lost.

If you are getting rejected with an error code of F8962-070 it is because the IRS believes that you or someone on your return received health insurance through the marketplace in 2021. This may be the case if anyone is listed as a covered individual on a marketplace insurance policy, even if the main individual is not on your tax return.

If anyone in your family has an account on Healthcare.gov, they will want to check to verify there is no 1095-A for 2021. If no one in your family was covered by marketplace insurance at any point in 2021, this has worked for some:

Click Deductions and Credits
Scroll down to Medical and Click Show More
Click Start or Revisit next to the Affordable Care Act
As you walk through the questions, you will be asked if you received a 1095-A. If you did NOT, click YES.
Enter your 2 letter state code for the Marketplace identifier and 0's as the Policy number.
Enter $1 for January monthly premium amount and SLCSP. Enter 0 for the Monthly Advance Payment of Premium Tax Credit for January.
Continue to the end and submit your return.

Entering $1 for your January premium will not impact your return and it should get past the IRS automatically rejecting it for not having the marketplace forms attached to your return. However, if Form 1095-A was issued for yourself or a member of your family, filing without the real form will cause a delay and possibly an automatic change to your tax refund by the IRS.

i have the 1095A copy and i need to ad that copy because i was rejected from my refund!

Here's how to enter your 1095-A in TurboTax:

Open (continue) your return if you don't already have it open.
On the menu bar on the left that shows.
1. My Info
2. Federal
3. State
4. Review
5. File
Select Tax Tools
On the drop-down select Tools
There are 4 green boxes
Select Topic Search
Type “1095 A”
Before we ask about your Form 1095-A, we need to ask about some other information = Answer appropriately.
Did you receive Form 1095-A for your health insurance plan? = Answer appropriately.

If you answered YES, enter your 1095-A info on the next screen and select Continue. We don't need all the info from your 1095-A, so we'll only ask about the info that affects your return.

This is exactly what I’m having a problem with keep getting rejected because of these two forms

Do you have a dependent on your return that was covered by insurance through the Marketplace? If so, then you would need to include their 1095-A on your return, even if you did not pay the insurance.

When you are rejected for not filing form 8962, it is because IRS records show you or a dependent on your return had insurance through the marketplace.

If you or no one on your return definitely did NOT have coverage through the Marketplace at anytime in 2021, then you can go to your 1095-A section in TurboTax and enter $1 for the January Premium amount and the SLCSP. This will generate the form, but not affect your taxes. It will let the IRS then update their records.

To enter $1 for the 8962 select the following:

Deductions and Credits
Show more next to Medical
Start or Revisit next to ACA
Answer YES to did you receive a 1095-A
Enter 0's for the Marketplace Identifiers and Policy numbers
Enter $1 for January Premium and SLCSP. Do not enter anything for the PTC
Continue through and submit your return.

I need help filling out my non filer tax on line

@bkristich42 If the IRS is rejecting your return then they think that you had the insurance and will not accept the return without it. You can put one dollar in month one on the 1095-A form in TurboTax. It won't effect your return at all but it will allow it to be e-filed. Then the IRS can straighten out the fact that you don't have a 1095-A at their end.

Same problem here. I did not receive marketplace health insurance at anytime through 2020. I keep selecting NO, however it keeps getting rejected and saying I must fill out form 1095-A.
