Life Change Events (Often Optional)

If you are applying during the standard Open Enrollment period, many of these questions about recent life events are technically optional. However, if you are applying mid-year, answering them accurately is required to unlock a Special Enrollment Period:

  • Losing health coverage recently (or losing it soon)
  • Getting married
  • Adopting a child or gaining a dependent
  • Gaining an eligible immigrant status
  • Moving households in the past 60 days
  • Being released from incarceration

Critical Tax Warning (Mandatory!)

You will be asked if you successfully reconciled your past premium tax credits on your previous federal tax returns. Do not skip or ignore this.

If you received an Obamacare subsidy in the past but forgot to file Form 8962 with your taxes to reconcile it, the government will completely cut off your tax credits for next year, forcing you to pay full price for insurance.
