I worked for 2 years in US with an L1 Visa. On June 2017 I was laid off and my Visa revoked so I needed to leave the country asap. I did not sign up for COBRA as I knew I was leaving before my coverage provided by my former employer expired.
I was covered until my last day in US with Health Insurance. I am now completing my Tax Refund and found that since me and my family left in June I need to pay a penalty for the months July to Dec 2017 when I was not longer residing in US and my Visa privileges revoked. Is this correct?
Do I need to select any other option when declaring the months I received coverage in 2017?
Thank you,

You are exempted from the ACA penalty for the months after your visa was revoked.
In TurboTax, revisit the Health Insurance section.
