When entering a parent's 1095 A info on my taxes, do I write all the months' info from Column A,B,C or just the months I was included on their plan?

I can't be claimed by my parent as a dependent but I was on their healthcare for a few months. TurboTax is asking to provide the 1095 A details but unsure if I should copy all of it as is or just enter the info for months I was covered for.

Enter the 1095-A exactly as it is on the form.  Then check the box that it was shared with someone who is not on your return.  You will enter the social security number of one of your parents.  You and your parents will agree on the percentage of the 1095-A amounts that you will each claim  

 

The only requirements are that the percentages together much add up to 100%, and that you all agree on the percentages.

 

For 2020, there is no payback of the premium tax credit in case of an overpayment.  

 

Form 1095-A is a form that is sent to Americans who obtain health insurance coverage through a Health Insurance Marketplace carrier. The form does not have to be returned to the government but serves as a record of the individual's coverage.
