Get your taxes done using TurboTax

It is correct to enter the amounts on the 1095-A, and any deductible amounts will carry to Schedule A. These amounts are: (1) any health insurance premiums that you paid out of pocket, and (2) any premium tax credit that you had to pay back.

 

"but this does not carry over to Schedule A." - it does on my test returns. However, do you have a Schedule C on your return? In this case, the deductible part of the 8962 goes instead to the Self-employed Health Insurance Deduction on line 16 of Schedule 1 (1040), which is even better than going to Schedule A.

 

If you do not have a Schedule C, how do you know that the deductible part of the 8962 did not carry to Schedule A? There is a rather high floor for medical deductions, which means that unless you have other unreimbursed medical expenses, no medical deduction might appear on Schedule A.
