Filing 1040 with Form 8962, do I claim myself on the 1040 Form?

My only income is Social Security which is tax free, But since I had help from CoveredCA!!! I have a 1095-A which means I need to file taxes. I now know that I have to file a 1040 with a 8962, My question is do I claim myself on the 1040?

Yes, you can claim yourself on your tax return and get the full standard deduction of $12,000 plus $1,600 if you are 65 or older ($24,000 if married filing jointly).
