How Do I File Taxes For ObamaCare If I Have Medicaid?
I have Medicaid in the state of Minnesota and did have for all of 2014. Do I need an exemption from The Exchange to file my taxes for 2014? Do I need to fill out Form 8965?
Answer
If you had Medicaid for each month of the year, just check the box on line 61 of your 1040. If you missed even one full month, file the 8965 exemptions form.
There are lots of Medicaid related exemptions, if you only had limited benefit Medicaid you need to file the 8965 form for 2014 (and will need full Medicaid or other coverage moving forward).
See our 1040 instructions for filing 1040EZ and 1040A forms.
