NOW that we have more info, yes there can be APTC payback.

If your client was subsidized (that is what the marketplace is all about) AND her income pushed her over that 401% cliff, then part or all of the subsidy may have to be paid back.

Consider an IRA or HSA (if qualified) to try to get off the edge of the cliff.

Explain "employer" heath insurance and marketplace.  Those don't usually "go together".

Or do you mean your client was on employer health insurance until end of June?  If you don't know, wouldn't this be a question for your client than this forum?
