Get your taxes done using TurboTax

On the 1095-A, column B is the Monthly Premium Amount of Second Lowest Cost Silver Plan (SLCSP), which is never $0 as it represents a premium amount that would have been charged.  Column C reflects the Premium Tax Credit you received throughout the year.

 

You need to enter your 1095-A exactly as the form you received shows.  You can get a copy of your form from your Marketplace account if you did not receive it in the mail.   If you did not receive a 1095-A (or you received a 1095-B or 1095-C), you should not enter anything on this screen.

 

Your premiums are deductible as medical expenses (unless you were self-employed) and limited to the amount that exceeds 7.5% of your adjusted gross income.  This amount also is only deductible when you itemize your deductions.  If you do not enter your 1095-A, the IRS will not reject your return.
