Yeah, this is irked, I have a 1095 C, daughter a 1095 B and mother 1099; it's crazy. How do you prove a negative?
I got a letter in the mail saying my federal return won't be processed until I send in a 1095 A and a form 8962.
What are the instructions for 2018?
I got a letter from the IRS say they need a 1095A and form 8962 for 2018. Turbo tax did not generate 8962. What do I need to do?
If you have received a letter from the IRS asking for form 8962, Form 1095-A (Letter 0012C) first, please check which tax year the letter references. If your notice does not specifically ask for a recalculated page 2 of your 1040, you may disregard that part of the directions. You will only need to provide what the IRS requests in their letter.
Because you purchased your health insurance through Healthcare.gov or a state marketplace, Form 8962, Premium Tax Credit (PTC) should have been included in your return. It’s used to calculate the amount of your Premium Tax Credit and reconcile any advance payments you received to help pay your health insurance premium.
We’ll help you complete this form with Turbo Tax and you do not have to submit an amendment, just print off and return the forms which the letter specified.

You may also use the TurboTax Audit Support Center for additional help and information responding to the IRS notice.
mine says the same thing, so I returned the forms, but now the website will not update or even say that they have gotten them, or things changed. I faxed mine in, and its been well over 21 days since I filed. How much will this delay the refund coming?
How do I do it for the tax year 2019? I filed already and received the letter from the IRS requesting a completed 8962 form and a copy of my 1095-A form
TurboTax changed the location for the entry of the Form 1095-A when Congress lowered the penalty for not having health insurance to $0.00.
For 2019 use these instructions to generate a Form 8962:
I have the same issue. The instructions released by TT do not help at the moment. It says I have to wait until late February to use the Turbo Tax Online function for 2019! Looks like my refund will be delayed at least a month or two!
"Amend Using Turbo Tax Online" is not available until late February! Is there a work around for this issue?

No. But do not amend too soon. You have 3 years to amend.
You should *wait* until your return has been processed and you receive your refund or conformation that any tax due has been paid. (If you file an amended return while you first return is being processed it can cause extended delays for both returns if two returns are in the system at the same time). In addition, if the IRS makes any change on your original return, you might end up having to amend the amendment – a sticky process that can take a year or more).
Hi, nothing comes up on document for me to review. Just wants me to buy something. TIA Joe
For 2019 use these instructions to generate a Form 8962:
I do not know what to do I am very worried about this should I amended
No, don’t amend your return, just follow the instructions that LindaB1993 has provided above. Above all, just follow the IRS’s instructions.
Try not to worry. The IRS just sees, from its records, that you should have filed Form 8962 with your return. That’s all that it means at this point.
Hi,
This is very helpful information. The one issue I am having while following the steps is that it does not have the option to amend on turbo tax online. The only option it shows is for downloading the turbo tax desktop even for previous years, or is it the same thing and that is just another part of the steps? @DeanM15
