Deductions & credits
As long as the policy is in your name, you can use Marketplace insurance premiums for the self-employed health insurance deduction. On the screen after you enter your 1095-A, there is a checkbox for "I'm self-employed" and bought a Marketplace plan". Check that box and continue.
According to the Learn more link for that question, if you reported self-employment income on any of the schedules listed below and you used that income to buy health insurance through Healthcare.gov or your state Marketplace, you can deduct your premiums on your taxes. However, you need to tie that income to your 1095-A so we can properly calculate the deduction amount.
Schedule C – Self-employed business income
Schedule F – Farm income
Schedule K-1 partnership – This only counts if you earned self-employment income from that partnership, which means you would have an entry on Line 14 of your K-1 from that partnership.
Schedule K-1 S corporation – This only counts if you have a W-2 from that S corporation and are an owner with more than 2% interest in the S corporation.
