For my form 1095-A, it says "Monthly Premium SLCSP has a zero entered.... please delete this zero." Im not sure what to input as my form has zeros in those entries.

I only had a Marketplace plan in August. I entered those numbers. The rest are all zeroes on the form and TurboTax will not let me continue.

Leave all columns for all the months that you did not have coverage blank, don't enter zeros.

I am having the same issue now. The program won't allow me to efile until I fix this issue but I am not sure how. How did you solve this problem?

Please see below for solutions to the issues with zeros on your Form 1095-A:

 

If you had two Marketplace insurances but didn't have the second Marketplace insurance all year, you can leave column A blank for the months you didn't have it.  Then columns B & C will not be an issue.

 

If you have an amount in column A, then the amount in column B can't be zero. You must enter the Second Lowest Cost Silver Plan (SLCSP). The SLCSP is the second-lowest priced health insurance plan in the Silver category that was available when you applied for insurance at Healthcare Marketplace. 

 

You can use the Health coverage tax tool to figure to get the SLCSP if it is not on your Form 1095-A.

The amount in column C can be zero if you didn't take a monthly subsidy to help pay for your health insurance premiums.

 

  • If you did get a monthly subsidy to help pay for your health insurance premiums, enter the monthly amount in column C.

See this article for more information about the Premium Tax Credit. 

 

TurboTax will automatically fill out Form 8962 once you enter your Form 1095-A.

Please ask the content creators to change the wording. It sounds like you want us to enter the 0.00 which is also reflected on our 1095-A. So, we actually should not enter the value ''even if it's zero". Thanks!
