Get your taxes done using TurboTax
The above author is correct that the numbers you receive from the healthcare.gov tax forms website are correct. The claim that the IRS or healthcare.gov will send you correct 1095-A from is blatantly false. Sometimes they send a correct 1095-A. They will if you claimed subsidies upfront. If you did not claim subsidies for the full year, but are eligible for the subsidies your 1095-A column B will be full of zeros. When this happens you must go to the healthcare.gov tax tools forms website - enter your information and it will generate the correct numbers that should have been in column B of 1095-A. Then you must enter this information into IRS form 8962 and then and only then will you be able to fill out your taxes correctly. Lesson learned the hardway - always claim a subsidy - even if only a small subsidy so that I can receive a correct 1095-A and not have to bother with form 8962. [If your 1095-A did not have zeroes in column B just use it as is. But if has all zeroes in column B do not rely on the government or any other agency to send you a "corrected" 1094-A - it] will not happen - go use the healthcare.gov tax forms section and prepare to fill out more IRS forms. [specifically 8962).
