I have a single client with 38146 AGI and did not have any health insurance all 12 mths. She was not offered any group coverage and had no marketplace coverage. She just did not buy coverage and none was offered to her. My software is saying she owes a 557.00 penalty , it is calculating this and is using a 207.00 national average premium per mth. In the tax book it uses this 207 nat average . If I go and do a 8965 and affordability worksheet in my software and have it lookup her bronze premium for her zip code the monthly premium based on a smoker is 269.00 and when I recalculate it takes away the penalty showing her insurance as unaffordable.
My question is do we have the option to figure this way or must we just use the 207 amount national average.
This is my first one this season.
Thanks,Ron
