Question

1095A with parents and 2 adult children, 8962 population

So Ive got a MFJ return 1095A that has both parents and 3 kids on it.  One child is still a dependent, the other 2 are not.

I allocate 100% to parents, 8962 all good.

1 allocate 0% to both adult children, one of them the 8962 populates with the 0% allocation, on the other kid, no 8962 populates at all...why the difference? 

(I didn't expect the 8962 to populate on either of them with 0% allocation, like in prior years, so I was surprised when it was included on one.)

WAIT:  I see it now.   It didnt force me to mark those dependent boxes on the info worksheet on one of the kids. Once I hit NO to being claimed as a dependent, then the 8962 appeared with the 0% allocation.   It forced me to mark those on the parents return and one kids return, I think if the income isnt high enough, it doesn't prompt for those boxes?

It is interesting it didn't force you to check that box.

It's nice that the 8962 with 0% is showing up though, so maybe it can be e-filed now without the problems of previous years.
