    1095-A Marketplace Assigned Policy Number

    In box 2 of Form 1095-A there are two numbers separated by a hyphen. I am unable to enter this many digits into that box in my software. Do you think I should enter the first or the second set of numbers?

    If the policy number of the Form 1095-A is more than 15 characters, enter only the last 15 characters.




    It says "characters", so I would keep the hyphen.

      That was my guess but I hate guessing in this biz.

        Hardly seems to require a "guess". . .

        From the IRS instructions ( https://www.irs.gov/instructions/i89...2.html#d0e3666 ):

        Lines 30 through 33, column (a).
        Enter the Marketplace-assigned policy number from Form 1095-A, line 2. If the policy number of the Form 1095-A is more than 15 characters, enter only the last 15 characters.
