Hi, thanks for responding. I used the online version this year but used the download last year and the same thing occurred. I've already submitted the return so I can't return to the actual question, but it asks for contact information and requires you to check either Medicaid or Health Insurance Exchange indicating you want information on at least one of the programs. It would not let me past that question unless I checked at least one box and my email address was already pre filled. There is no direct question asking if you want the information or not.
I needed to go ahead and file so I checked one box just so I could go on.
This is how it shows up on the final return.
Health Care Coverage Contact Information
Preferred Method of Contact
Email Email Address
Phone Daytime Number
Spouse’s Email Email Address
Mail Address, if different from 760
Last year when the same thing happened and I received correspondence from both programs indicating that I had requested info on the programs when I did not want information.
Prior to last year there was a question asking if you had health insurance and as long as you said you had insurance no further information was requested. Beginning last tax year the question I asked about appeared and required you request info from at least one state program.
Thanks
