If you got married and your joint income rises above subsidy levels, then yes, you will have to pay them back.

You have an option of filing separately and that may reduce the amount you have to pay back. But, that can take away other credits/deductions that you may be eligible for filing jointly.

But is there a place to write the date of my marriage so I’m not paying back Jan- May since I wasn’t married then?

Did you do this process on 1095-A?
Please complete the Health Insurance section and just after entry of the 1095-A, TurboTax will ask,
Do any of these situations apply?
Click the checkbox for Got Married in 2017 and answer the questions.

Will it ask what date we got married?
