Christian Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 Luckily most of my folks have health coverage. One couple who are non citizens who work legally here and return home periodically have me sorta stumped. In reading the regs exemption C seems to me to be the correct entry on Form 1040. Any input would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted January 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 Ah yet another federal masterpiece with many regs and many more interpretations of same. I rarely drink alcohol but after additional reading related to the ACA I am inclined toward the idea of laying in several gallons of Chivas Regal for the tax season so I can retire to my couch and relieve my anxieties.

Christian Posted January 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 I finally found a resolution to this problem. The couple are resident aliens and as such are subject to the ACA requirements. However, since their combined income is on the order of $25,000 or so they qualify for an exemption based on the costs of the healthcare (bronze level) being greater than eight percent of their modified AGI. As another member pointed out keep looking till you find them an exemption. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
