Form 1095-A is not what shows that you had coverage.
- On the very first screen in the health insurance interview there are three choices. You should select the third option, "I'll pick which months I had it."
- The next screen tells you to select the months that you had insurance. You should have a check in the box for every month except May.
- The next screen asks if you have a situation that waives the penalty. Don't check any of the boxes. Just click Continue.
- The next screen will tell you that the penalty has been waived. That's because TurboTax automatically gives you the "short coverage gap" exemption because your gap in coverage was less than three months.
Then proceed through the rest of the health insurance interview, which will include entering your 1095-A.
