After you file
How to Attach an "ACA Explanation" (Not sure how to attach anything else.)
If you're not required to file an 8962 Form, but the IRS rejected your return because you didn't include it (in my case it's because I am claiming a child that was on my ex-wife's ACA policy, but I wasn't covered or named), here's how to attach it...
1) In TurboTax, search for 1095-A.
2) Select and confirm that you didn't receive one.
3) Go to the "Forms" view and look for the document that was added called "ACA Explanation."
4) Overwrite default text with your own. Overwriting it is tricky--only accepts limited number of characters. Write one line at a time--once you overwrite the text of the first line, it will let you overwrite the second line. After the second line, you can continue adding lines of text, one at a time.
5) Save the file and go back to the form to assure your text is there.
