I received a 1095B which does not require entry, but my return has a 1095-A which I can not delete. We are not on the health exchange. My husband uses the VA.

    You may have indicated somewhere in the interview that you got your health insurance from the marketplace, or that you have a Form 1095-A.

     

    If you didn't have marketplace health insurance, you can use the "Delete a form" option in TurboTax Online to delete the 1095-A form in your tax return. If it "reappears" in the tax return, check your answers in the Deductions & Credits/Medical/Form 1095-A section to make sure you answered that you did not get a Form 1095-A.

     

    This link has the following instructions for deleting a form in TurboTax Online:

    1. Open or continue your return in TurboTax.
    2. In the left menu, select the dropdown arrow next to Tax Tools and then Tools.
    3. In the pop-up window Tool Center, choose Delete a form.
    4. Find the 1095-A form in the list, select Delete next to the form and follow the instructions.

    My husband and I both have market insurance and have had for MANY years. The 1095B in question arrived

    due to his connection with our local VA hospital when he applied for and received disability benefits. I cannot

    answer the questions asked for by Turbo Tax for 1095B because none of that info is on this very sketch Health

    Coverage form which he received in the mail. He primarily uses Medicare and/or Blue Cross.

    What happens if I ignore the questions concerning form 1095B which has obviously been reported to the IRS?

    Thank you.

    @mamabearii  Only the 1095A must be reported on your taxes. The 1095B is just informational and not required. Do not enter any 1095B information.
