Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

We'll help you get started or pick up where you left off.

I shared a Marketplace policy with 2 different people, neither of whom I'm claiming on my taxes. There's only room to enter information for ONE though. Help !?

Any resolution to this problem?  I'm on the phone with support for over an hour now and support doesn't know how to enter more than one additional person.

You could share a Marketplace policy with any of the following people who aren't on your taxes:

  • Someone with whom you share custody of a child
  • A former spouse
  • A person who now claims your child as a dependent on their taxes
  • A person you used to live and file taxes with
  • A parent or an adult child

Please coordinate with the other people on the policy to be sure that when all of you are added together it does not come to more than 100%.  All of you will have the same market-assigned policy number, so the IRS will be looking at those returns to coordinate.


If you shared a Marketplace plan with two or more people who are on separate tax returns, put the social security number of the primary person on the policy. Then, you will need to find what the SLCSP is for each person's household and add it up. Then, divide your SLCSP by the total SLCSP to get your percentage of premiums and advanced payment of the premium tax credit. The SLCSP percentage is usually left blank.
For instance, if you shared it with two people and all three of you are on different returns, and you all paid one third of the premiums, one of you will put 34% and two of you will put 33%, so that it adds to 100%.  
For the advanced payment of the PTC percentage, find out what they have on their number are in that column, add all of them together, then divide your part by the whole for the percentage.
Here is an image of a screen with one third of the premiums and advanced premium tax credit.
