Are you claiming your child as a dependent on your return?

Is your child filling his/her own return?  If so, the 1095-A should be reported on their tax return. 

 

Schedule 8812 (Child Tax Credit) is used to claim the Child Tax Credit (CTC), Credit for Other Dependents (ODC), and Additional Child Tax Credit (ACTC). 

What's Schedule 8812?

No I am claiming my cold. He lived with me and I supported him as he was unable to work

Are you saying that you entered your child's 1095-A, but TurboTax isn't showing the data on your return? (like on the 8962, Column A is not the sum of the amounts on your and your child's 1095-A?
