If you have already filed your tax return and it has been accepted, you can amend your return. If you do not have healthcare through the Healthcare Marketplace for 2024, than you can amend your tax return to answer no to that question.
Individuals who did not purchase coverage through the Marketplace, including those with Medicaid or CHIP coverage, will not receive a Form 1095-A.
If you are amending your 2024 tax return and you filed your original 2024 tax return in TurboTax you will be able to e-file your amended return. There are some circumstances where you will be unable to e-file your amended 2024 return and you will have to mail it in. TurboTax will tell you if it has to be mailed.
If you prepared your original tax return using TurboTax, log in to your account, open the tax return you already filed, and click on the link to amend your return.
If you are using TurboTax Online:
- On the "Tax Home" screen, scroll down to "Your tax returns & documents" and select the year you want to amend.
- Select "Amend (change) return", then "Amend using TurboTax Online". If you're told to amend your return via TurboTax Desktop, follow the steps for TurboTax Desktop instead.
- Continue through the screens, make the changes you need to make, and carefully answer the remaining questions to finish amending your return.
Some things to keep in mind:
- You must wait until your original return has been accepted to amend it.
- Wait until you get your refund or have paid your taxes. Have a copy of your original return at your side before you start. And be sure you use the correct year’s software of TurboTax.
- You must file a separate Form 1040-X for each tax return you are amending.
- Amended returns can take more than three months for the IRS to process.
- Gather your original tax return and any new documents needed to prepare your amended return.
- Print a copy of your return that you are amending and have it ready to refer to.
- Use the same TurboTax account you used to file your original return.
- Be sure to only make changes to the areas of your return that need amending
