How to generate Form 8962

[David94]

My client is allocating policy amount with his parents. So I filled a shared policy allocation information smart worksheet in Form 1095-A. But Form 8962 is not generated.

After I e-filed the return, I received the error message from IRS as below.

Error Detail:
The e-File database indicates that Form 8962 or a binary attachment with description containing "ACA Explanation" must be present in the return.
Error Resolution:
This return rejected due to Form 8962 Premium Tax Credit missing from the return. In order to complete Form 8962, you should have received Form 1095-A Health Insurance Marketplace Statement with relevant information on the insurance that you purchased in the marketplace.

I had a same case client and I generated Form 8962. I e-filed the client return without an error.

I don't know why this error has occurred.

Please help me.

Thank you.

Theres some kind of glitch when you allocate 0% and the 8962 doesnt get included.  Just print it to PDF and attach it as an "ACA explanation" attachment, that should get you past the rejection.

Hi, do you by chance know how to force to print out 8962?

No, I didn't find out.

I attached the PDF for that return.
