Question regarding form 8962 and 1095-A

itygirl1992 — Tue, 04 Jun 2019 22:28:43 GMT

I recently filed taxes through turbotax for 2016. I received a letter in the mail a few weeks later to provide a copy of form 1095-A and a filled out form 8962 to the irs. I filed single, yet I am confused when amending through turbo tax on why I owe, if I also received medi-cal from January 2016-November 2016.

Also, should I continue with the amend option through turbotax? or should I send the documents by mail? I am getting a bit confused on what to fill out on the first 1-11 sections of the 8962 print out... would it be the same if I went through the amend process on turbotax?

Any suggestions would be appreciated!

The IRS is requesting that you to send them, a copy of your 1095-A, the Form 8962 and the "newly computed" page two of a form 1040 or 1040A which shows the change(s) to your return. Be sure to read the details of your letter. For more information, see Understanding Your Letter 0012C.

Thank you for the response. What I do not understand is why I owe if I was covered through Medi-cal and also had coverage through covered ca. Can this be exempted?

Also do I receive any federal amount back? or would the amount be taken out to compensate on what I owe. Thanks!
