I have health insurance through Covered Ca and updated my account by reporting a change (since my income is different now because of covid-19), which lead to them having to relook at the application as a whole. I got a notice this week saying that I "do not qualify for premium tax credits or other financial help" and it gave me a couple reasons and the only one that made sense was that I did not file my taxes with Form 8962 in a previous year.
So, how do I fix/amend my 2018 taxes to include my 1095-A info and Form 8962?
- Do I fill out Form 1040-X? If so, I couldn't tell where to put my missing information on that form.
- Do I fill out and mail in Form 8962 with my 2018 1095-A information?
- Do I fill out both Form 1040-X and 8962 and mail it in? (Again, I can't tell how to complete Form 1040-X in relation to my situation)
I know I have to mail in the forms, I just can't figure which form(s). Is there a more secure way (like faxing) to turn in the changes?
Thank you in advance!
