I have a client the purchased insurance through Covered CA and received a 1095-A. Him, his spouse and son were covered all year. His son filed separately this year and not included as a dependent on the parents tax return. His return was rejected for the following reason. "The e-File database indicates that Form 8962 or a binary attachment with description containing "ACA Explanation" must be present in the return." How can I correct the error and have his return accepted?

Include an 8962 with a -0- allocation

The more I know the more I don’t know.

You've probably already figured this out, but you have to attach the 8962 as a pdf to the return for e-file.
