Is any experiencing trouble with the calculation of Line 5 of Form 8962? For example, let's say Line 1 = 2, Line 3 = 65,576 & Line 4 = 17,240. Line 5 is calculating 133%. I calculate if should be 380% (65,576/17,240)

Let me guess ... the taxpayer collected Unemployment Compensation, right?   😁

Excellent guess! Yes, the taxpayer collected unemployment in the amount of $26,006 in  2021. I am guessing maybe I exclude the unemployment for modified AGI on 8962? If I do, the calculation is (65,576-26,006)/17,240=229%. What am I missing? Thank you for you reply!
