About Form 1095-A
...
The Health Insurance Marketplaces issue Form 1095-A to the IRS and to individuals who were enrolled in a qualified health plan through a Health Insurance Marketplace.
Form 1095-A allows individuals to take the Premium Tax Credit (PTC), reconcile advance payments of the PTC, and file their tax returns accurately.
Taxpayers who enroll in a Health Insurance Marketplace plan agree to file a tax return if receiving advance PTC, regardless of income, in order to reconcile their Premium Tax Credit.
Failure to claim Form 1095-A when an individual on the return is enrolled in a Health Insurance Marketplace plan, will result in the return being rejected, or a letter being issued after filing indicating that the 1095-A must be included on the tax return.
...
In a typical year with no extensions, Form 1095-A is typically issued to taxpayers in early February.
Form 1095-A will be mailed to the taxpayers address on file with the Marketplace. Form 1095-A is also available in the taxpayers online Marketplace account.
Taxpayers who have questions about the amounts on their Form 1095-A should contact their individual Marketplace.
...
In situations where someone claimed on the return has Marketplace Insurance, and the policy is shared with another individual or individuals not on the tax return, a Shared Policy Allocation must be completed.
...
In addition some taxpayers may need to complete Part 3, if claiming a dependent whose income was greater than the filing threshold for the tax year or Part 5, if the taxpayer married after January 1st.
