How do I add the tax form 8885.I need to file this in order to receive a refund for where I paid February's Healthcare premium.

To get to Form 8885 in TurboTax:

  • Continue your return in TurboTax Online. (If your return isn't open, you'll need to sign in and click Take me to my return.)
  • Click Tax Tools (lower left side of your screen).
  • Select Tools.
  • In the pop-up window, select Topic Search.
  • In the I'm looking for: box, type 8885.
  • In the results box, highlight 8885, health insurance credit for eligible recipients, then click GO.
  • Follow the onscreen instructions.

Note: If using the TurboTax CD/Download software, you'll use the Find function (instead of "Tax Tools") to search for the topic.


The Health Coverage Tax Credit is part of a special program designed to help certified displaced workers. For more information please see What Is Form 8885?
