Will I be penalize on my Taxes when I file in 2014. No. According to the affordable healthcare act exemptions, if you receive any care through the VA healthcare system you are considered to have the minimum health care coverage and do not have to pay the “penalty”. https://www.healthcare.gov/if-im-a-military-veteran-what-do-i-need-to-know-about-the-marketplace/ I have a shared cost of Medicare.I can’t get in through my work till next year.what do I do my Medicare is doo high I can’t use it you should have recieved a letter from the VA stsing you are covered so you dont need to do anything I have an insurance through my employer. However, my total contribution towards my insurance cost is more than 10% of my family annual income. I have family of four. Do I get tax credit or only those people who get insurance through Market place receives the tax credit. Thanks, RP Hi RP, Only individuals who purchase through the Marketplace are eligible for the tax credit. If your insurance for self-only coverage is more than 9.5% of your household income you can purchase in the Marketplace and you may be able to get assistance. If your 10% includes coverage for other family members then that doesn’t count.

My son has been unemployed for serval years and has no income or insurance due to numerious health issues. I believe you don’t claim married til the next tax return. Yes. Your marital status for the entire year for filing purposes is determined by your marital status on December 31st of the year of filing. Hi Juli, If you are required to purchase health insurance, you have to do so by March 31, 2014 before you get married so you should put in single to figure out health insurance eligibility. Once you get married you would have a life event that enables you to change insurance outside of the open enrollment period. Some of the comments you’ve received are mixing up rules for qualifying as married for tax purposes. For more answers to your specific health insurance questions, visit http://www.TurboTaxAnswerXchange.com Thank you, Lisa Greene-Lewis I can’t even click on “I don’t have insurance” to calculate anything… Pointless… Because the other 3options say “you’re all set”… But I’m NOT Hi Joel, Can you tell me what browser you’re on? Also go to http://www.TurboTaxAnswerXchange.com to use our updated calculator and for other answers to your specific health insurance questions. Thank you, Lisa Greene-Lewis Hello my name is hina .I use the calculater to find out and it’s says I do qualify what do I have to do next also I wants to know for my parents they do qualify but right now they using a Goldcard which is some type of government plan so now what they have to do ? They can still keep the Goldcard or this new insurance. Thanks. I used your calculator and it said we are eligible for assistance. My husband and I have 2 separate health care policies. Mine is through my former employer (I’m retired) and I pay $550/mo. His is a terrible plan – basically only major medical with a $5000 deductible. We pay $271/mo for it. The calculation said we would receive assistance and have to pay $347 -for his. I only entered his info because my insurance is a great plan- and I’ve had cancer 3 times and don’t want to switch. Does the $347 sound right? We’d have to pay more? I am confused about the tax penalties starting next year. My friends tell me that I will be assessed a tax penalty of around $95. for 2014 and than it goes up to over $1,000. in 2015 and over $2,000. in 2016. Is that right? I am on Medicare through Kaiser. Do I still have to pay a tax penalty? Hi Norma, If you are covered by Medicare you don’t have to pay a penalty. For 2015, the annual penalty will increase to $325 per adult and $162.50 per child, with a maximum penalty of $975 per family (or roughly two percent of total income depending on family income). In 2016, the annual penalty will be $695 per adult and $347.50 per child, with a max of $2,085 per family, or about two and a half percent of total income depending on family income. Thank you, Lisa Greene-Lewis But what does this plan cover?? What are the deductible and co-pays? I need to compare apples to apples! My insurance is within $100 a month of amount quoted for this—but I have a low deductible, low co-pays and LOVE my Doc!!– ??? Hi Sharon, You can see what health care plans cover and more details at healthcare.gov Thank you, Lisa Greene-Lewis Well if her calculations are so wrong, why don’t you use your God built calculator and figure it out. Have an android tablet w/Chrome. Tried all 4 tabs no response from any of them. Good Job… Does the health insurance subsidy calculator use gross income or AGI? Can’t get the results! It won’t go to the results screen. I’ve tried on IE and Chrome, can’t get past income screen. Hi Linda, We looked into this and updated the files. Let me have it checked again. Thank you for your feedback. Lisa Greene-Lewis It doesn’t matter, just turn it over to people so much smarter than you….the government. We will all be subject to the whims of the govt. Since its broke, once they sucker the nation onto this program by offering something for “free” (like a drug pusher giving away the first crack dose), the subsidies will be gone and the rationing will begin. Its the ONLY way to reduce costs without a free market solution (see cost of computes over 10 yrs) Congratulations Mike, you’re one of the 10% who knows the end game. The rest are too distracted with their work, kids, divorce, social media, latest Hollywood gossip, mainstream “news” propaganda, etc. to pay any attention to what’s happening. America is signing up for a lot of misery, but hey, it costs less than freedom, so what the heck right? Sad thing is we get dragged in with them. I totally agree with you, Mike. This whole idea is a disaster. Thanks to Obama, my daughter is now forced to pay 235.00 per month, that already includes the govt. subsidy reduction. She absolutely does NOT have 235 extra dollars laying around each month. She barely can pay her bills and student loan debt as it is now. She wll have to give up groceries to pay for Obamacare. It is absolutely wrong to force people to buy something they do not want. I can’t imagine anyone NOT WANTING health insurance. I found a decent plan for my 18 year old son for 73.00 a month. Maybe if it seems to expensive, you should shop around a little more. NOT having health insurance can ruin you for years if some major happens. Cindy rodgers what is his deductible and co pay for that price?? won’t go to final screen. Browers is Firefox Hi, I just tried the calculator again using Firefox and I was able to get to the results screen. You may need to update your Firefox. Thank you, Lisa Greene-Lewis so youre going to pay her medical bills ? or will we the taxpayers have to for her ?…do your homework…obama care is really really affordable compared to getting health covereage on your own and even through your employer that’s completely false. Obama care is a joke. the most expensive plan will cost you over 800.00 a month after applying the subsidy and even then the plan only pays 80% but not until you pay 1500.00 out of pocket pluss 2000.00 deductables. you have large co pays and you have to pay the other 20% of major medical. if you have a major operation or have a lot of specialists or have cancer you will never be out of debt and your children will get your debt when you die. Obama has and will continue to screw americans. Is this ever going to be fixed? Will there ever be an answer? I don’t think your eligibility information is right. I entered a family of 4 (2 adults, 2 kids) with a household income of $80,000. Your calculator tells me that’s not subsidy eligible, but the Kaiser calculator and the UC Berkley calculator both say that’s subsidy eligible. The 400% of FPL level for a family of 4 is over $96,000. I have IE 10, and I can’t read all the screen either; too much blank space or supplemental information on left and right. Dave S Question: What is the difference implied by the message “Enroll for your benefits beginning October 1, 2013 at the new Health Insurance Maketplace…” and “You can shop for a new health insurance plan beginning October 1, 2013 at the new Health Insurance Marketplace…You can usethe government provided subsidy or tax credit you qualify for towards the cost of a new health insurance plan.”? The second is if you have no insurance. The first is if you have private insurance now. Does this mean you have to different plan offerings from uninsured and does it mean you pay full premiums but get a tax credit at filing time? Social Security gives me 945.00 per month or less. I got no form from them. Now what? Now what, is right. You rely on the government for your sustenance and now they control you. Don’t worry, the rest of America is going to be in the same boat as you. We’ll only get what the government deems necessary. If we want something more, too bad. I entered 48000 as household income for my wife and myself and it said we are not eligible for a subsidy which I am sure is not correct. I just entered a fictitious couple (59 and 57) currently uninsured making $48K with no other dependents in the household and got the message that the couple can apply via the Health Insurance Marketplace and qualified for a subsidy. This doesn’t work. I entered $50000 household income for my husband & I & it states we wouldn’t get a subsidy when the law caps it at $62000. Is the annual income referring to gross income or net income (as found on the federal tax return)? You did not answer this question. I have the same question. What line on the federal form is used as the income calculation amount Hi David, The income calculation is based on your modified adjusted gross income, which is your adjusted gross income (wages and salaries, interest and dividends, unemployment benefits, and other sources of income) plus non-taxable social security, tax exempt interest earned, and foreign income earned that was excluded from income, so it will be (AGI) Line 37 on form 1040 plus any non-taxable social security and the other nontaxable income mentioned that will be used. Thank you, Lisa Greene-Lewis Also problems on Chrome. After entering your and spouse’s age, screen slides too far/not far enough to left. IOW, part of image is off left side of screen. I did get thru to end, but couldn’t read all of message. Forward/back arrow disappeared when it would be useful to try to read full message.

You did not answer this question. I have the same question. What line on the federal form is used as the income calculation amount
Hi David, The income calculation is based on your modified adjusted gross income, which is your adjusted gross income (wages and salaries, interest and dividends, unemployment benefits, and other sources of income) plus non-taxable social security, tax exempt interest earned, and foreign income earned that was excluded from income, so it will be (AGI) Line 37 on form 1040 plus any non-taxable social security and the other nontaxable income mentioned that will be used.
