After you file
This is from the health care section with form 1095A. I'm asked if I have a dependant who filed a separate return, when I check yes it then asks me for his MAGI. The instructions for finding his MAGI
"To calculate your dependent child's modified adjusted gross income (MAGI), you'll need to access their completed 2020 tax return. If you have not filed your dependent child's tax return, you'll need to do that to do the calculation.
If your dependent child filed their tax return with TurboTax, they can sign into their account to access their 2020 tax return.
Your dependent child's MAGI can be calculated by adding any amount reported on Form 1040 lines 2a to the amount on line 8b. Although it's not common, if they claimed foreign earned income exclusion, housing exclusion, or housing deduction, add the amount from form 2555, lines 45 and 50, or form 2555-EZ, line 18 to the amount on line 8b. Finally, if they have received Social Security income, add the difference between lines 5a and 5b to the amount on line 8b."
He doesn't have any amount in line 2a or 8b.
