Marketplace-1095 C

Taxpayer was enrolled for 12 months (2024) in the Marketplace.  Received a 1095-C for 2024 with a few months coded 2F.  Employer offered health insurance but doesn't guarantee any work or hours for the year; it's periodic project work.  Once an individual works at least 1 month ''full time'' hours, they will be offered health insurance without the guarantee of any work, let alone full time hours.  

 

How are the 1095-C months coded 2F reported on form 8962?  Looks like the months in question would not be included in column B (Part II lines 12-23)? Are they subject to the current repayment cap for excess ACA Marketplace credits?  If not, how would taxpayer repay the months in issue?  

 

Thank you.

    A 1095C is for employer insurance.   Did you mean a 1095-A for marketplace?

     

    What if I didn't get a 1095A?

    If  you had health insurance through your employer and you have a 1095C, you do not enter anything about that.   When it asks if you have a 1095A, you say NO and just keep moving on with your tax return.   Only a 1095A for health insurance from the marketplace is entered----IF you had that kind of health insurance---also called insurance from healthcare.gov, also called "Obamacare" insurance.   You do not enter a 1095B or a 1095C at all.

    Hello:

     

    Thank you for the reply.

     

    Employer offered insurance but doesn't guarantee any work at all; it's periodic project work.  One might work in March part-time, and full-time hours in July.  2024 had (3) months of full time work and the 1095-C is coded 2F for these months (meaning, I believe, that ''employee'' was offered insurance for the months in question).

    Question is: are the 2F months considered ACA ineligible months for which repayment is required?  If so, how is it applied on 8962?

     

    If you work (1) month a year with full time hours, that employer is required to offer health insurance.  You could work (3) months part time and (3) months full time in a year.

     

    Hope this clears up the issue.  Thank you again.
