If you have already attempted to e-file your return, but were rejected with rejection code F8962-070, you may find that you will not be able to answer the ''Did you receive a Form 1095-A?'' question with a NO response. When you select No, TurboTax will revert your selection back to Yes.
The reason you can’t change your response to NO, is because the 1095-A as well as Form 8962 are now included in your return. But, if you do not have a 1095-A and know you will not be receiving one, you can delete the 1095-A from your return. This will also remove the 8962 and allow you to change your answer to the 1095-A question to NO. If you have confirmed that there is no 1095-A available from the Marketplace, follow the steps below.
-
Delete the 1095-A form - see below
-
Revisit the 1095-A section and answer NO to the 1095-A question
-
E-file your return again
To delete the 1095-A from TurboTax, when you are signed into your tax return:
-
Search for 1095-A or search for 1095-a and use the Jump to 1095-a link to be taken to the questions.
-
Answer the question about unemployment and the next screen will show your 1095-A that was started.
-
Use the Delete button or the trash can icon depending on your version to delete the form.
-
Confirm the deletion.
You can also delete the form in Forms Mode, if using the desktop software or by clicking on Tax Tools and then Tools, and then 'Delete a form' in TurboTax Online.
Once the form is gone, TurboTax will accept a NO answer and you can then re-submit your tax return.
