Question

I came to US in 2018. I forgot to enroll in health insurance in 2018. Do I have to pay tax penalty? If yes, is there any way to avoid it?

There are exceptions to the Penalty for not having Health Insurance.

You may fall into one of the Categories under 'Wasn't required to get insurance' or 'Couldn't afford insurance' (screenshot).

Here's more info:
