Divorce and 1095-A

I received a 1095-A for Marketplace health insurance from 2022. The health insurance policy was only for my husband then, and he is the only one listed as a "covered individual." (I had separate health insurance thru my job at the time.) However I am listed as the "Recipient" on the form in box 4, and my then-husband is listed as the "Recipient's Spouse" in box 7. The health insurance was for coverage from Jan. 2022 to August 2022 again, for just my husband. We were however then divorced as of Dec. 2022. I am now filing as single and my now ex-husband will not fill because he did not work due to an illness. How do I handle this form on my return?  I called to cancel the marketplace in August when we divorced. Please help. Thank you!

    The 1095-A will follow the social security number for the covered individual.  So it goes on your ex-husband's tax return.  Since he's not filing then you can just give it to him and call it a day.
