Do you have a TurboTax Online account?

When I input my tax credits re Insurance Marketplace it shows that I'll have to pay some back as I earned more income than I estimated, but I didn't. How do I fix this?

I had 10 months of the credits, but when I became a permanent employee, and not a contactor, I cancelled and enrolled with my workplace health insurance.

I am not sure I understand your point.

 

If you owed some Premium Tax Credit back, this will appear on line 2 on Schedule 2 (1040). Did this not happen?

 

Since you were self-employed, when you entered the 1095-A, you should have been asked if this form is associated with a business (I hope you entered the business first, so TurboTax can ask).

 

Note that self-employed taxpayers can earn the Self-employed Health Insurance deduction (line 16 on Schedule 1 (1040)) for premiums that you paid with after-tax dollars (one of the columns on the 1095-A, and any Premium Tax Credit that you had to pay back.

 

So I haven't checked, but if you have an amount to repay on your PTC on line 2 on Schedule 2, it seems reasonable that the amount on line 16 on Schedule 1 be increased by the same amount. Did this happen?

 

Let me know if it didn't and I'll test it.
