HRA and PTC

TC61 — Mon, 23 Feb 2026 13:27:48 GMT

We receive reimburse for premiums through an employer Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HRA). Therefore, we are not eligible for Premium Tax Credit (PTC). TurboTax is requiring us to complete column B of the our 1095-A from the Marketplace, which was blank. When we do this TurboTax automatically calculates the PTC. In the past column B was not required and not PTC was calculated. We can't seem to find a way to get around this and file correctly. How should I enter so that we can file?

From ThomasM125:

You should not enter the form 1095-A information in TurboTax. You are not required to complete Form 8962 Premium Tax Credit unless you received advance premium tax credits or you qualify for a premium tax credit, which you do not.

We received reimbursement through an ICHRA for two months in 2022 and then received APTC for the other ten months. The 1095-A for the two months that were reimbursed shows $0 for both months under Part III, column B. Turbotax will not accept $0 in the field. When I follow the directions, if the amount shows $0, it has me to put the same amount as what shows in column B on the 1095-A for the other ten months (where we received the APTC). When I do this, it keeps generating a tax credit for the two months that we received reimbursement for and I know I cannot receive the credit. I have searched everywhere for an answer, so any advice is greatly appreciated.
