What to do at tax time

Why health coverage matters when you file taxes

The tax forms you may get depend on the type of health coverage you had during the year. Keep any health coverage tax forms you receive with your tax records.

Do I need to report my Marketplace savings on my taxes?

  • If you enrolled in a health plan through the Marketplace and used advance premium tax credits (APTC) to lower your monthly premium, you must include that information on your federal tax return.

What tax form will I get?

  • You will get IRS Form 1095-A (Health Insurance Marketplace Statement).
  • Form 1095-A includes information you need to file your federal taxes.

How will I get my Form 1095-A?

  • If you signed up for mailed notices, your form will be mailed to you.
  • If you chose electronic notices only, you can download your form from your account.
  • If you had coverage in 2026 or before, you would get a Form 1095-A for those years from HealthCare.gov. The form should be in your electronic inbox or available upon request by calling their customer service line: 800-318-2596.
  • For coverage in 2027 and beyond, Oregon will provide your Form 1095-A form using the communication preference you chose in your application. You can also find this form in your secure online inbox.

Keep Form 1095-A with your tax records.​
