Anyone on your taxes
who belongs to a federally-recognized Indian tribe or is eligible to receive
health care services through the Indian Health Service, tribes and tribal
organizations, or urban Indian organizations, may qualify to get the IRS
penalty for going without health insurance in 2016 waived.
The Health Insurance
Marketplace may follow up to request documents confirming your tribe membership
or eligibility for services from the Indian Health Service, a tribal care
provider, or an urban Indian health care provider.
Go to Health Insurance, "Did you all have health insurance coverage in 2016",
then select "None of us had it at any
point". Click Continue. Then
it will state "Did you have a situation
that waives the tax penalty for being uninsured?" Please see the
attached photo. Then choose Indian tribe member
or eligible for Indian health care.
