Taxpayer has a negative MAGI because of an NOL carryforward. His Household Income as a Percentage of Federal Poverty Line on Line 5 of Form 8962 is 0%. Even without the NOL, his Line 5 is still below 100% because his only income in 2021 was $10K of capital gains.
Taxpayer's For, 1095-A reports APTC payments for 2021 of $2,080. ProSeries is calculating/allowing the APTC and an additional $1,380 of Net PTC on the Form 8962 even though the program is calculating a negative MAGI and a 0% on Line 5.
Our old software (TaxWise) had a Y/N check box on Form 8962 to indicate “If the percentage on Line 5 is less than 100%, did the taxpayer meet the requirements under “Estimated household income at least 100% of the Federal poverty line” in the 8962 instructions?”
I do not see a similar check box in Proseries. Is there anywhere in the program to indicate that the taxpayer did not meet the requirements for APTC and PTC?
This taxpayer does not seem to meet the Estimated household income requirements in the 8962 Instructions because that the taxpayer’s “insurance agent” did not provide accurate information about the taxpayer’s MAGI to the Marketplace when they signed the taxpayer up.
I don't really want to override this Form, but not quite sure how else to proceed...
