My husband and I are both covered thru my employer sponsored healthcare. I have a FSA but no MSA or HSA. What are the appropriate answers to turbo tax to tell it YES! we both have been covered for the entirety of 2023?

    Since you are both covered by your employer answer yes.

    Oh, if only "yes" were an option

    Family

    Self

    None

    Those are my options 

    For some reason Turbo Tax thinks I don't have health insurance and I have failed to be an eligible individual.

    Did “Family “ not work?  Unless you are in a state like California which penalizes the uninsured the answer to the question won’t affect your return. 


    If I add none for my husband and family for me, it wants me to add 1095-A data

    I don't have 1095-A data because we were both covered under my work health insurance 

    I do have a 1095-c but they don't want that.

    The W-2 does have data in box 12-b for health insurance.

    Why does turbo tax presume I don't have health insurance? And then impossible to move past the circle of anxiety?

    Why not make it easy and say "do you have health insurance?"
