What if I forgot to input my 1095-C form and I already filled for my taxes?

You don’t need your form 1095-C to file your tax return. The TurboTax interview should have asked you questions about your health coverage but your Form 1095-C isn’t needed. Just keep the form for your personal records. 

Just review the form for accuracy. If it matches what you reported on your return for the health insurance portion, you do not need to do anything else.  It's just the form that tells the IRS what type of health coverage you were on and how long you had the coverage.

It did ask me the question about my insurance but I only entered the form 1095-A I did not have my 1095-C I didn't know about this other form until I received it today. What should I do now after I already filed?

As long as you have added your 1095-A to the return and answered the health questions, you are okay. If you've already filed and then receive the form 1095-C, it's ok. You don't need to amend your return. Just keep it with your personal records. It's not entered on your return at all.

What if I'm not sure if I answered the insurance question correctly when filing my taxes and now have my 1095-c form. How do I make a correction to my return?

There is no need to enter the 1095-C into TurboTax. Just put the 1095-C into your permanent tax file.

Me to me to, i'm confused because no where did turbotax mention anything about  1095-C. I have read many responses claiming we dont have to put that info in but there's a Box 15. (employee required contribution) and its $92.16. I definitely did not input that amount into anything on turbo tax. Is this a problem? I can't even find where i would have if i did miss something.

You shouldn't enter anything form form 1095-C into TurboTax. You don't need that form for your tax preparation, only the form 1095-A would be used, but you won't receive that form if you received the form 1095-C. It just reports information about your health insurance coverage offered by your employer.
