Can you enter on Form 8965 Code B to be eligible for short coverage gap in health insurance?
If you were without insurance for two consecutive months only, the program will automatically enter the exemption.
Short coverage gap (code “B”).
You generally can claim a coverage exemption for yourself or another member of your tax household for each month of a gap in coverage of less than 3 consecutive months. If an individual had more than one short coverage gap during the year, the individual is exempt only for the month(s) in the first gap. If an individual had a gap of 3 months or more, the individual isn't exempt for any of those months.
For example, if an individual had coverage for every month in the year except February and March, the individual is exempt for those 2 months. However, if an individual had cover-age for every month in the year except February, March, and April, the individual isn't exempt for any of those months.
An individual is treated as having coverage for any month in which he or she has coverage for at least 1 day of the month.
