Hi i filed my 2019 tax returns and realized i forgot to file my 1095-a. How do i go back and file that? I know i need to amend my return but nothing on your site makes sense to make that happen. Thanks

    STOP .... you must  WAIT for the IRS to either accept or reject the return. 

     

    If rejected you can make the correction and resend the return :

     

    The 1095-A information is entered under Deductions & Credits this year:

     

    1. Sign in and Continue your return.
    2. Click on Deductions & Credits near the top center of the screen.
    3. Find Medical on the list. If you don't see it, click on See all tax breaks at the bottom. 
    4. Click on Show more to the right of Medical
    5. Find Affordable Care Act (Form 1095-A) on the short list, click Start on the right.

     

    If it gets accepted you must wait for the IRS notice and then you can follow their instructions ... don't know if they will be the same this year as last...

    I’m in the same boat; I also forgot to add form 1095-A. Out of curiosity, what are the old instructions if the IRS accepted the return? 
    I am confused about this process as I’ve never had to amend a return before and I am dying to know what to expect. Thank you.

    In the past they requested the missing forms ... you will need to send the 8962 & 1095-A ... but wait for this year's letter since we do not know if they will change the way they handle it.
