You are eligible for the premium tax credit if you meet all the following requirements. You:

 

  • Have household income that falls within a certain range.

  • Do not file a tax return using the filing status of Married Filing Separately.
    • There is an exception to this rule that allows certain victims of domestic abuse and spousal abandonment to claim the credit using Married Filing Separately; for more information, see the Premium Tax Credit questions and answers.
  • Cannot be claimed as a dependent by another person.
  • Meet these additional requirements: In the same month, you or a family member:
    • Have health insurance coverage through a Health Insurance Marketplace for which the share of the premium not covered by advance credit payments is paid by the due date of your return.
    • Are not able to get affordable coverage through an eligible employer-sponsored plan that provides minimum value.
