Hello everyone.
I have a return that being rejected for not including form 8962, 1095-A info. She doesn't have Obamacare. Never has. How do I provide a binary attachment to her return to reconcile this?
Thanks

Hi @john
If the taxpayer, spouse, or dependents enrolled in the marketplace, even if they never activated their policy, the marketplace may have issued them a 1095-A. If the return is e-filed without the 1095-A the IRS will reject the return with Error F8962-070: The e-File database indicates that Form 8962 or a binary attachment with description containing "ACA Explanation" must be present in the return. If the taxpayer is unsure have them contact HealthCare.gov to search for all the SSN's on the tax return.
There wouldn't be a way to add the e-file binary attachment the IRS is expecting without that source document info.

Hi, thank you for your help.
Hi John. Thank you for your message about having the client call the HealthCare Med-QUEST. She did and was issued a 1095-B, not -A. How do I attach this as a "binary attachment."
Thank you!
but where and how do I attach that for efiling?
Hi John. There must be a place within the program that allows a pdf as an attachment. Can you give me a clue? My client received a 1095-B, although the program continues asking for the 1095-A.
