Thank you for the quick and helpful reply, JohnW!152

 

For others trying this, I would add the following:

 

If you don't initially see the Jump to 1095-a link as described, but instead just see a bunch of search results relating to 1095-a (as happened to me), first do this:

 

In Tax Home // Deductions & Credits section, click Review/Edit and THEN search for 1095-a in the search box. The Jump to 1095-a link should appear at the top of the search results.
