Yes, you can select the months you had insurance and only have a penalty for the months you did not have insurance. To select insurance for part of the year, once fully logged in do the following:

  • Click Federal
  • Click Health Insurance
  • Select You had insurance all year or  I'll pick and choose which months
  • Click Continue
  • Select the Months you had insurance and click continue
  • Continue through to answer the rest of the questions and to see if you qualify for a penalty waiver.
