Question

Are you sure proof of health insurance is not required for California state returns? I submitted my own taxes last year and had trouble due to not attaching a 1095.

California overcharged me last year due to not having proof of health insurance until I provided it.

Proof of health insurance is required for California. Usually you wouldn't have to enter a 1095-B or 1095-C. If you have one of those forms, you need to enter it to avoid the California Penalty.

OK where do I add it?

Once you get to the states section (those that require), it will ask if you had health insurance all year. Just press yes.
