Interactive Tools Help You Understand Health Care Law’s Effect on Your Taxes

The Interactive Tax Assistant tool is an online resource that can answer a wide range of your tax questions. When it comes to the Affordable Care Act, they can answer questions such as:

• Am I eligible to claim the Premium Tax Credit?

This interview tool will help you determine if you are eligible for the premium tax credit.

• Am I eligible for a coverage exemption or required to make an Individual Shared Responsibility Payment?

This interview tool will help you determine if you are eligible for an exemption or if you must make an individual shared responsibility payment with your return.

The Interactive Tax Assistant takes you through a series of questions; conclusions are based on your responses. When using the tool, you get the same answers as if you’d called and spoken with an IRS representative on the phone. You can print out the answers for your records.
