The 8962 is populated after you enter the form 1095-A in the Health Insurance tab ... make sure you have updated the program so all the forms are present and working.

The Form 8962 will be included with the tax return if a Form 1095-A that you received for Marketplace Insurance was entered in the Health Insurance section of the TurboTax program.

See this TurboTax support FAQ for completing a 2016 tax return originally started with the online editions - https://ttlc.intuit.com/community/prior-year-return/help/how-do-i-finish-a-prior-year-return-that-i-started-in-turbotax-online/00/26322

With the 2016 program started and the 2016 tax data file opened -

Select the Federal Taxes tab
Select the Health Insurance tab.
Answer the questions about your health insurance which includes entering your 1095-A.
Select the File tab
Select Print/save for your records
Select Save a PDF
Select Form 8962 and Form 1040 and print them.
Send the following to the IRS address or FAX number given in your IRS letter:

A copy of the IRS letter that you received.

There wasn't a 1095-A, I have a 1095-B. I had to enter the months that i did not have health insurance.

Thank you.

Thank you.

A Form 1095-B is not entered on a tax return. If you did not receive a Form 1095-A and never had health insurance through the Marketplace then there would be no reason to have a Form 8962.

Contact the IRS if you did not have health insurance through the Marketplace during 2018 as they probably have incorrect information concerning your insurance.

Then you would need Form 8965 in your tax return, not Form 8962. Form 8965 calculates the penalty for the months that you were not insured. Form 8962 is only for those who qualify for Premium Tax Credits because they have insurance from a Health Insurance Marketplace and therefore receive a Form 1095-A. It seems to me that the IRS would only be asking for Form 8962 if they received a copy of Form 1095-A, which seems unlikely if you received a Form 1095-B (unless you should have received both because you changed to or from a marketplace plan).
