Please try these instructions below to first delete the blank 1095A/8962 forms and then select "NO" for receiving a 1095A.

If you select "Yes" you will be prompted to enter the 1095A information and you cannot continue leaving the full form blank as an error will be presented. Now you will not be prompted with the "Yes/No" question to receiving the 1095A and will see your entry with options to edit/delete the entry. Delete the 1095A entry and both the 1095A and 8962 are removed from the return. If you revisit the section again default will be "Yes," but the forms are removed Now, select No. You should be able to e-file your return now

Question

My return keeps getting rejected and it says that "ACA explanation" or form 8962 must be present in the return but I never received health insurance through Marketplace?

I’ve been trying to select “No” but it keeps automatically returning my answer back to “yes.” I don’t understand why?

It does revert to yes, if you revisit that section. Once you have gone through the steps above, simply do not go back to that section and the answer will remain as No.

You can also go to Tax Tools>>Tools>>Delete a form then verify there is no form 8962 or 1095A showing. It should not be. If it is, click delete a form.
