Get your taxes done using TurboTax
If you have negative number in line 16 of Schedule 1 (Form 1040), then read below.
The first step I suggest you do is "unlink" your 1095-A from Schedule C, and then link it again. To do that, uncheck the box shown on the screenshot below.
If that doesn't work, there is a workaround available for TurboTax Desktop version for this. Follow these steps:
1) Go to Forms Mode
2) Find 1040/1040SR Wks
3) Scroll down to the section with the negative number on line 16.
4) Just above it you will see a box for Self-Employed Health Insurance Premiums Tax Credit Smart Worksheet.
5) Remove amount from box B.
For TurboTax Online, you have two options:
1) File an extension and wait for the fix.
2) Do not claim the health insurance adjustment to income for self-employed. You can do that by unchecking the box for the question in the 1095-A interview about whether you were self-employed. See the screenshot. You can file an amendment after the fix comes through (TBD).
Here are instructions on how to amend your tax return.
