I have Christian Healthcare Ministries insurance, it makes me exempt from the affordable care act. How do I put that on my tax form? I have an exemption form 8965 .

Get your taxes done using TurboTax

To report your exemption from the ACA penalty, follow these steps:

  • Go to Federal Taxes, Health Insurance
  • indicate that you didn't have insurance (you select this for your situation)
  • On the next screen, you'll see the checkbox you are looking for under

      Wasn't required to have insurance- Health care sharing ministry member.

Check that, and your 8965 is completed accordingly.

How do I report that I was a member for a partial year?

When you indicate any of the exceptions, the next screen asks which months the exception(s) would apply to. It will ask, "Select the months you were part of a health care sharing ministry". You select the months for any of the exceptions for coverage that you are using.
