The reason why the program does not ask the question is that you are not required to have health insurance in 2019 by law. The health insurance coverage is no longer mandatory at the federal level, as of January 1, 2019. However, some states still require you to have health insurance coverage to avoid a tax penalty.
If you have enrolled in the marketplace and received a Form 1095-A, you would still need to enter that in the program. Here are the steps:
In TurboTax online,
- Sign in to your TurboTax account and select Pick up where you left off
- At the right upper corner, in the search box, type in "1095-a" and Enter
- Select Jump to 1095-a
- Follow prompts
This could create a Form 8962 Premium Tax Credit, the difference between the advanced payments of premium tax credit (APTC) you used and the amount of premium tax credit you qualify for, which you would need to report on your taxes.
