SLCSP PERCENTAGE

[asimnaseer1]

I have two taxpayers on my plan that were on and off for different time periords.   How do I allocate the SLCSP percentages within Turbotax for my return, as well as that of two additional tax returns (individuals).

You can indicate that you shared the policy and prorate.  You can decide the proration amounts  between you but the pro-rations must add up to 100%. You can also click on the blue link.  What percentage of the following policy amounts do you want to claim on your tax return?

Child/Children on another tax return

If you share a policy with someone who is claimed on another tax return (usually a child), you can take the number of people on your tax return who are covered on that plan and divide it by the total number of people on the plan. This would be your percentage of premiums, SLCSP and advanced payment of the premium tax credit, unless you agreed on a different number beforehand

I have shared that policy with my two sons, In 2021 they are not my dependents. My one son was quit from my policy in May 2021 and other was quit in August 2021. Both are filling their tax returns 2021 separately. So how can I file 8962 for two kids and what will be the ratio. Can you please help

I have just read on turbo tax that if you shared a marketplace policy with more than one person contact us we will help you allocate your policy amounts. Please advise

Split your 1095-A into two, one for January through May, and the other for June through the end of the year. 

For January through May, enter the Form 1095-A exactly as it appears for those months. Select the allocation box, enter your first son's social security number who stopped receiving coverage in May, select January through May as the dates, and for the allocation percentage, enter the percentage you have worked out with your two children. You must claim the same percentage of monthly premiums, SLCSP, and tax credit received, but you can claim as much or as little of the total as you want. If you are splitting it evenly, you can claim 33% of each. Your two sons will also claim 33% (one of you must claim 34% actually). 

Enter Form 1095-A using the information from June through December. Select the allocation box, enter your other son's SSN, and select June through August as the dates. If you are splitting it evenly, each of you will claim 50% of the monthly premium, SLCSP, and tax credit. 

Again, you do not have to split it evenly. As long as all three of you agree to it, you can allocate it however you choose.

Your first son will only claim his percentage of Form 1095-A for January through May. He will enter it exactly as it appears for those months. He does not need to include the June - December information. He will enter your social security number, the dates, and his allocation percentage. 

Your second son will also need to fill out two 1095-As, one for January through May and one for June through August since his allocation percentage will be different. He will use your SSN on both and enter only the months that pertain to him for each form.
