PDF Editor FAQ
Did President Trump’s Executive Order directing the IRS to process individual income tax returns, where the heath insurance coverage box is left unchecked, mean you can leave blank the line on healthcare coverage on the tax form?
Absolutely not.This is very old news from early 2017 when filing 2016 tax returns, when IRS decided to delay the start of rejecting tax returns for not checking the full-year healthcare box and not having filed Form 8965.Some people were misinterpreting that as IRS doing something differently that year compared to previous years — but it’s the exact opposite — IRS was originally planning to do something different, and changed to do the same thing as previous years. For filing 2014 and 2015 tax returns, before Trump became president, IRS also did not reject tax returns that did not check the full-year healthcare box and not having filed Form 8965. They were originally planning to start rejecting such tax returns for the 2016 tax year, but they decided to delay that. All this commotion was about them doing the same thing as they did before, so it was completely unwarranted.And this delay did not mean they were “not enforcing” the individual mandate or that you could avoid paying the penalty if you didn’t have insurance. It just meant that they were not rejecting tax returns for failing to check that box. The IRS will continue to investigate and audit people who they believe failed to pay the penalty when they needed to. I forgot to check that box on my 2014 tax returns, and IRS sent me a notice in 2017 asking me to amend my 2014 tax returns to either check the box or file Form 8965 (I had full-year healthcare so I amended it to check the box). They will do so with 2015 and 2016 tax returns for people who forgot to check the box too.And the delay was just a delay for one year. For 2017 tax returns, filed in early 2018, they are rejecting e-filed tax returns if they did not check the full-year healthcare box and did not file Form 8965. (And next year, for 2018 tax returns filed in early 2019, they will continue to reject tax returns if they did not check the full-year healthcare box and did not file Form 8965.)
How many taxpayers have had to pay a penalty for not having health insurance?
For tax year 2016, the IRS reported that 4.0 million tax returns made a penalty payment (Individual Shared Responsibility Payment), averaging $708 per return. 10.7 million returns filed form 8965 to claim an exemption from the individual mandate.https://taxpayeradvocate.irs.gov/Media/Default/Documents/2018-JRC/JRC18_Volume1_AOF_11.pdfThe New York Times recently published some more detailed statistics about tax payers who paid the penalty in tax year 2015: Millions Pay the Obamacare Penalty Instead of Buying Insurance. Who Are They?
