If you have an Exemption Certificate Number, or you have applied and are waiting on the number, and you did not have health insurance for all or part of 2016, here's how to enter it.

Try clicking on another tab, such as Deductions and Credits, and then back into Health Insurance.  That should take you back to the beginning.

  • When asked, Did you have health insurance coverage in 2016?, select either the second or third option, depending on your 2016 situation, and Continue.
  •  If you had insurance part of the year, select the months you had insurance for and Continue.
  • On the Did you have a situation that waives the tax penalty for being uninsured? screen, scroll down to Applied for a penalty exemption, and select Got an exemption certificate number from the Marketplace or I haven't received one yet and Continue.
  • On the Let's get your exemption certificate number (ECN)screen, select or enter the requested information and Continue.  If you have applied and are waiting on your number, you may enter pending in the certificate box.
