It’s tax season! Check your mail for Form 1095-A


Published on January 25, 2024

Did someone in your household have a Marketplace plan in 2023?  When you file your taxes, you’ll need Form 1095-A, Health Insurance Marketplace® Statement. This form comes from the Marketplace, not the IRS.

 

1. Find your form 

2. Check your form

Is it correct? It should include information about any Marketplace plans that members of your household had last year.

3. Use your form 

If it’s accurate, use the information on your 1095-A form to “reconcile”any premium tax credit you or your household qualified for or used. To reconcile, you compare two amounts: the premium tax credit you used in advance during the year; and the amount of tax credit you qualify for based on your final income.
