Two health insurances

I had insurance through the marketplace through August of last year and then I had insurance through my company. How do I record this information in my return?

Two health insurances

Just make sure you indicate that you had coverage all year and enter the 1095-A from your marketplace coverage when you are in the Health Insurance section of TurboTax. To do this:

  • Go to the Health Insurance section. (Click the Health Insurance tab, which will be under Federal Taxes or Personal, depending on the TurboTax product you are using.)
  • Proceed through the Health Insurance interview. Indicate that you had coverage all year (since you had marketplace coverage for 8 months and employer-sponsored coverage for the other 4 months). 
  • Continue through the interview and answer the marketplace questions:
    • Were you enrolled in any of these less common plans in 2016? Yes
    • What type of plan were you enrolled inObamacare plan (1095-A) 
    • Do you have a 1095-A form to enter for your Obamacare plan? Yes 
  • Next, enter the information from your Form 1095-A (Health Insurance Marketplace Statement)
  • Continue answering the questions in the Health Insurance section. 
  • When you're finished, TurboTax will display That's all we need on your 2016 coverage.


Note: You may receive a Form 1095-C for your employer-sponsored coverage, but this form isn't needed to file your tax return. Just be sure to store it with your records.
