Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I am having the same question doing my daughter's taxes. It says her income is 213% of the poverty line, which means she should be eligible for the tax credit, but in the summary after filling in the 1095-A it says:

 

Premium Tax Credit $0

How much you qualify for $1,827

Minus how much you got in advance as a discount $1,946

How much of the difference you have to pay back $119

Actual amount you have to pay back $119

 

However, as I was entering column C on the 8962 it deducted her Monthly Advance Payment of Premium Tax Credit amount from her Federal Return amount. We started with $1,933 and ended with -$13. That looks more like it was a loan! I feel like we've entered something wrong, but I'm not sure what to do. She normally gets back almost everything she has paid in, and this time she has to pay.
