I have a 1095-A for a family with monthly coverage from February to August. I input the monthly amounts, and the error message says it should be blank ?

it says "what" should be blank?  what did you put in the January and Sept-Dec boxes?  

Be sure to check if they have more than one 1095A, sometimes when its only a partial year showing, the other months are broken out into a separate 1095A.

As Lisa indicated, if a month shows all zeros, don't actually enter zeros, leave those blank.

I'm encountering this same issue.  The 1095-A indicates an error as soon as the monthly premium amount is entered into Column A, and completion of the remainder of the form doesn't clear the error(s).  This is happening (for me) on multiple client files, so it's not isolated to one particular client.  And, I've scoured the Pro Series site and can't find an acknowledged issue with the form.

I've had a couple, and when filing out the form you get errors along the way until you have completed it completly. Then all errors went away with no issues.

Are you entering an amount in column B?  If column A has an amount, you need the proper amount in column B.

Yes -- the error pops up when an amount is entered in Column A.  And then as noted, additional entries (including populating Column B - SLCSP) doesn't clear the error.  I've attempted everything including deleting the 1095-A form that has transferred from  the prior year, and creating a new form for 2025.

Okay -- I was just able to clear the error by entering a zero in Column C.  I had previously left this blank to mirror the issued 1095-A.

Hello, I have some clients that received form 1095-A and that had the Marketplace insurance just for a few months during 2025. When I calculate the SLCSP for the months where no coverage was provided and enter it in column B, Proseries shows an error. Would you happen to know why? Thank you.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but if no coverage was provided, why are you entering anything?  No coverage would mean there isn't a SLCSP.

Hello, thank you for your help. For what I was reading in publication 974, the SLCSP must be calculated and entered in column 3 even if the taxpayer did not receive the credit or because of change of circumstances. Proseries 2024 allowed me to enter the SLCSP in column B and zeroes in columns A and C. Proseries 2025 is showing an error. Thank you.

If they still had Marketplace insurance, yes, you need the SLCSP.  But if they don't have insurance anymore, leave all three columns blank.  In most cases, if there is nothing in column A, then column B and C will also be blank.
