📢 Marketplace (Form 1095-A)

Enrolled through HealthCare.gov?

  • When your 1095-A arrives (mail or online), save it and upload it to your portal.
  • We need it to reconcile the Premium Tax Credit. Missing it can delay your refund.
  • Tip: download or screenshot the PDF and keep it with your tax docs.
👨‍Dependent basics

Can you claim your child?

  • Generally: under 19 (or under 24 if a full-time student), lived with you > half the year, and didn’t provide over half of their own support.
  • Must be a U.S. citizen or resident and not filing a joint return with someone else.
  • Kids with part-time jobs can often still be claimed—ask us if you’re unsure.
