CategoriesBusiness & Finance

1095-A stands for Health Insurance Marketplace Statement (IRS Form 1095-A), a tax abbreviation.

HealthCare.gov and state exchanges send this statement showing monthly premiums, the benchmark silver plan cost and any advance premium tax credit paid for marketplace coverage. Recipients need it to complete Form 8962 and reconcile the credit.

Example: Don't file yet: we need the 1095-A to complete Form 8962.

Usage notes

Filing without reconciling advance credits can delay a refund and jeopardize future subsidies. Forms 1095-B and 1095-C, which report other kinds of coverage, are not needed to file a return.
