For those following this saga, furtherdevelopment:

 

One 1095A with with wife and (non-dependent) child on it. Child only on it for first 7 months.

My wife and my return:

- Noted child''s SSN as not on my return with policy shared for first seven months..

- My wife and I claim 73% of A,B and C for this shared time. (Assume 100% claimed for other, non-shared 5 months)

- On child''s return, enter my SSN as shared policy filer.

- Enter 1095A  columns A, B and C for the first seven months, blanks for last five months.

- Child claims 27% of A,B and C. 

 

- The 1099A was not issued to the child but her SSN is on it.

- The totals in child's entries do not match totals on 1099A but across both returns with the seven month split and the 73/27% split, 100% of whole year's A,B and C are claimed by the two returns in combination.

- I see this as a clear way of defining what happened - two separate individuals accounting for their own premium costs and credits respectively.

 

And, it I turns out that given her annual AGI, the child deserves all of the advance premium credits according to TurboTax.

 

It's the best I can do given that there should have been two separate policies, and two separate 1098As.

 

Question:  Should the child add an explanatory statement to her return?  (And file by mail)
