If you were self-employed you could deduct your health insurance premiums.  I doesn't sound like you are self-employed, therefore, the only way you can deduct your premiums if you itemize deductions, and then only to the extent that your medical expenses (including health insurance) exceeds 7.5% of your Adjusted Gross Income (AGI).  It's a pretty high bar.

TurboTax Easy Extension is now available.  You can file an extension by going to Free federal tax extension is now available   Filing a tax extension allows you to avoid late-filing penalties; however, filing a tax extension doesn’t give you more time to pay your taxes.  

You don't file a Form 1099-S.  When you sell a house (or other real estate) a 1099-S is a form that is sometimes issued, usually by the closing attorney.  If you sell your primary residence and you don't have a taxable gain, you don't have to report the sale if you do not receive a Form 1099-S.  When you sell your primary residence, if you lived in the house for 2 of the last 5 years you can exclude up to $500,000 of gain, if MFJ, $250,000 if filing single.     So, the question is, did you receive a Form 1099-S for half the sales proceeds of the house?  If you did not, you don't need to report anything.  If you did receive a Form 1099-S you need to report the sale.  Also, if you received a 1099-S, does it only report your half of the sales proceeds?  Does your divorce decree say anything about you paying tax on any gain on the sale of the house?      

Did your tax return reject for a missing Form 1095-A?

Launch  TurboTax Select TaxTools in the menu on the left Select Tools Select Delete a Form in the pop-up window Scroll down until you see Form 1095-A and delete If you see Form 8962, delete that form also Return to your tax return and review.

Yeah., I got the same thing this year and was kinda stuck too.    in the 1099-misc from ETRADE by Morgan Stanley I had $24. UGH!   Below it had 2 entries for Sirius XM Holdings and after going back to the monthly statements, the dates do not line up at all, but a week apart, and were just recorded as misc income (instead of dividend income).    Kinda drives me nuts, tbh. In the explain section, I put it was a etrade assigned payment from sirius. and yeah, this is not part of their dividend (as far as I can tell), so yeah, I have no idea why it was there. I entered no, as I had no intent at all with this, being outside the bounds of dividends and all. 

Thank you for following up @VolvoGirl . It has California State.   I checked and found that TT has not 100% hidden personal info. Sharing in docs is safer as the token can be deleted once the issue is resolved and the content will not go through crawlers as well. Also, I checked and found that though TT has hidden most of the info but not 100% of personal info is hidden.   Further the link of the document that I have put is a Google doc link so we don't need to worry abut it being Fishy in anyway and it is viewable to all. I am pasting the visible link below.   Please let me know if you need any other info from me. Appreciate your help.   https://docs.google.com/document/d/1KhNTzQGjmG89lpjdYIvcJdRvzZeP-fCw53Virq8kHnQ
