I was on my parents health insurance in college. I got my own when I got a job. Do I enter that I had full coverage all year?

Yes, if you had coverage for the entire year (on your parent's plan, then your own) with no lapses, then answer 'I had health insurance coverage all year'

Answer 'I had it for part of 2016', if there was a gap in coverage at any point in the year.
