Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If you're being rejected for a missing or incomplete 1095-A it is because the IRS thinks you or someone on your return had a Marketplace health policy.

 

First confirm that you, or any others listed on your return were not covered by a Marketplace policy. You may be able to find a 1095-A form by signing in to your healthcare.gov account and downloading it.  

 

Once you're confident that you did not get a 1095-A, you can try to delete the form.


If this didn’t work, go into your return and make sure that you checked that you didn’t get a 1095-A.

  • Start with Federal Taxes 
  • Click on Deductions and Credits
  • Click on I'll choose what I work on (if shown)
  • Scroll down to Medical.
  • On the Affordable Care Act (Form 1095-A), click the start or update button.
  • Indicate that you did not get a 1095-A

Finally, if all else fails:

You can try to enter $1 on the 1095-A.  This will not affect anything on your return, but having the form there may get the IRS to accept your return.  To do this take the following steps: 

  • Use the same steps above, but indicate that you did get a 1095-A
  • Post $1 for January. This will not change your tax return.
