Hello, me and my mother make less than the required gross income amount to file taxes. I make $8601 and decided to file a tax return for my future FAFSA. My mother received a 1095-A form as the receipt from the Texas marketplace and we had received $1448 in (C. )Monthly advance payment of premium tax credit. I decided to claim 100% of all the percentages on the 1095-A as I am a covered individual on the form. With that being said, does this still mean she needs to complete her own tax return?

I don't know if she is insured, I just know that I (25), my brother (21), and my mother are listed in Part II of 1095-A as covered individuals, and my mother is also listed as the recipient. So does she still have to do the tax return? She makes 13300$ gross income for reference, as the head of the household.

Yes, she will need to include that on her return as well. If your brother is not a dependent, he will have to list it on his return too. It is fine if you take 100% of the allocation, but then they need to enter 0% on their returns.

Is she listed at all on the 1095-A? How old are you? Are you still a dependent? If you are a dependent on your mothers return, then you would not enter it on your return, your mother would need to enter it on her return.

If you are filing for a future FAFSA, I am assuming you are still in high school?

She is listed as the recipient on line 4. I am 25 and she is 56. My FAFSA is for my senior year of university and I am not listed as her dependent. I have already filed my return with 100% on all percentages, should I amend it?

I just want to know if my mother now has to do a tax return?

If you mother was not insured on the policy, she would not need to file a tax return to report the 1095-A, especially since you, as the covered individual reported 100% of the allocation on your return. The Recipient is often just a responsible adult in the household, designated to receive correspondence.

Here's more info on Form 1095-A.
