Level 2

NJ resident here. I didn't have health insurance for two months last year so I applied for an exemption and received my exemption code from NJ because the gap was less than 3 months. However, when I filled out my NJ tax return and entered the code that was provided to me, I still have to pay NJ $157shared responsibility payment. Why is that? What do i need to change in my NJ tax return? It looks like the payment was assigned by mistake.

You need to enter the exemption code and check the months for which the exemption applies in addition to the months for which you had coverage.

In the NJ-HCC worksheet, it says:" Enter the name and Social Security number for each member of your tax household. Check the box for every month each person had minimum essential health coverage or qualified for an exemption."

So in your case all 12 months should be checked.
