Hi,

I entered my monthly enrollment premiums from my 1095-A for the last three months of 2023 (as I was only covered by the exchange for those three months in 2023.) While performing the federal review check this section came up with errors. For Jan-Sept, I entered 0 in the representative fields. For Oct-Dec, I entered the amounts from my 1095-A. During the check, I received the following message: "Form 1095-A - Insurance Exchange... Monthly premium SLCSP has a zero entered. The corresponding entries for the month are zero or blank, please delete this zero." I deleted all the zeros' so the fields were blank and I received the same error message. Then I re-entered all the zeros' and received the same error message. How to proceed?

Thanks

Delete the Form 1095-A. Then re-enter the form and do not enter any zeros for the months where you did not have Marketplace health insurance coverage.

I'm stuck in a loop. I deleted the form. I entered the 1095-A exactly as issued. I still g0t Column B messages that say "Must be greater than $0." I deleted it and tried again. Same result.

If you didn't have Marketplace insurance all year, you can leave column A blank for the months you didn't have it. Then columns B & C will not be an issue.

If you have an amount in column A, then the amount in column B can't be zero. You must enter the Second Lowest Cost Silver Plan (SLCSP). The SLCSP is the second-lowest priced health insurance plan in the Silver category that was available when you applied for insurance at Healthcare Marketplace.

You can use the Health coverage tax tool to figure to get the SLCSP if it is not on your Form 1095-A.

The amount in column C can be zero if you didn't take a monthly subsidy to help pay for your health insurance premiums.
