Sorry to be tardy to the party, unfortunately I’m a last minute filer :*).
Anyway after looking over the link from the first response I realized there were more forms associated with it. One of them called the Schedule NJ-HCC which I believe is the portion on the TT website you’re having trouble with. You are not alone, I spent a good part of my day trying to figure out how to get this right.
Here is the link for the 2019 NJ HCCform
(https://www.state.nj.us/treasury/taxation/pdf/current/schedule-njhcc.pdf)
It’s pretty straightforward, but basically part II in this form states “Check the box for every month each person had minimum essential health coverage or qualified for an exemption”. So it sounds like the software is okay, the instructions just didn’t get placed/worded properly. Basically If you were covered by insurance check the box. If not, but you qualify for an exemption, check the box
Just be careful about your gap code, if the months were not consecutive (i.e. March into April, July into August, etc.) you will need to get two codes, one for each month you were fully uninsured.
Hope this info finds you well!
