In the past all you had to do was state that you had medical coverage and you had a 1095-C form as proof. This year when I tried to answer the question the Turbo Tax software required numbers from the 1095-C be inputted. Well my 1095-C and the others do not have any numbers no them. What should I do? Thank you for this forum and your assistance.

Hi Sistergirl66!
It sounds like you’re talking about the questions TurboTax asks you when you have Marketplace health insurance and Form 1095-A. There are three versions of the 1095 form, with letter A, B or C. Only the 1095-A needs to be entered in TurboTax for your Federal tax return.
I recommend that you go back and double check what TurboTax is asking. You are correct that you don’t need to enter information from the 1095-C.
Also, keep in mind that while the Federal return doesn’t require that you have health insurance, certain states do have that requirement. TurboTax will ask questions when you prepare your state return to ensure you meet each state’s requirements.
