Affordable Care Act Plan

[pgolinski]

Turbo Tax is asking for Affordable Care Act Plan 1095-A information. I did not receive a 1095-A but I did received a 1095-B (from employer) and a 1095-C (from VA). Should I use that information?

[Critter-3]

NO ... you cannot squeeze a square peg into a round hole.  If you did not have ACA marketplace insurance then you have no 1095-A to enter.   The 1095-B or 1095-C are NOT entered into the program at all.  Choose no and continue ...

You do not enter any information from forms 1095-B or 1095-C.   Save those with your tax records, but do not enter any data from those forms anywhere on your federal tax return.   

If you have already started to enter a 1095-A, you will need to delete that form before you can e-file.  

1. Delete the 1095-A form - see below

2. Revisit the 1095-A section and answer NO to the 1095-A question

To delete the 1095-A from TurboTax, when you are signed into your tax return:

1. Search for 1095-A or search for 1095-a and use the Jump to 1095-a link to be taken to the questions.   

2. Answer the question about unemployment and the next screen will show your 1095-A that was started.

3. Use the Delete button or the trash can icon depending on your version to delete the form.

4. Confirm the deletion.

You can also delete the form in Forms Mode, if using the desktop software or by clicking on Tax Tools >> Tools >> Delete a form in TurboTax Online.

Once the form is gone, you should not receive any errors.
