Nope. I contacted my exchange and they won't issue one. As I stated, if you have a catastrophic ACA plan, which is basically a price break on bronze plans, you won't have a 1095-A issued. So I have a QHP from the exchange and won't be getting a 1095-A. Turbotax says not to put it under health care premiums if it is an ACA plan. Enter deduction as through regular medical expenses, here is why: The purpose of entering the 1095-A is to determine the correct amount of premium tax credit you received versus what you qualify for. Since you did not receive federal assistance with your health insurance payment, then you would not need to enter the form 109-A. Because it is not on a 1095-A- with federal assistance, go ahead and enter your expenses in the medical section as if it is not Obamacare - tax credit related.Related:Questions and Answers on the Premium Tax Credit | Internal ...What is the ACA's catastrophic plan and who is eligible ...

Yes, you would deduct Health Insurance Premiums in the Medical Expenses section, under Deductions & Credits.

However, if you are not Itemizing Deductions, this won't help you.

If you don't have a 1095-A to enter, you should contact your Plan Administrator, or see if you can get one online, as the IRS may request a copy from you.

I contacted my Health Exchange in Colorado and they said I won’t get a 1095-A because we had a Catastrophic Health Plan. It’s ACA compliant purchased thru the exchange.
