Question re healthcare penalty.We moved back to UK permanently in Aug18 & cancelled our healthcare coverage for rest of year. TT now says we owe a penalty is this right?

If you indicated that you did not have coverage all year in the Health Insurance section, you then come to a page outlining Penalty Exemptions you may qualify for (screenshot).

Since you were no longer residing in the US, you can indicate that you were a 'Resident of foreign country...' under Wasn't Required to Get Insurance'.

You should see a message that '... the penalty has been waived..' (screenshot).

Can I get back to the question on my already filled out return that asks if anyone on my return has a Healthcare Marketplace Insurance?
