Healthcare premium tax credit possible if married filing separately?
Most of the time I can wade through 'IRS-speak' and understand what to do and how things work; but I need some help with this:
A couple, married and living together for the entire year, where one spouse has health coverage through their employer and the other has marketplace coverage may want to file separately - for reasons not tied to health coverage - but have questions.
1) Can they file as MFS?
2) If they can file that way, is the 'household income' used equal to their combined AGI or only the AGI of the spouse that had marketplace coverage?
3) As far as form 8962 is concerned what else changes if the filing status is MFS?
Thanks
