As the IRS notes, if you obtained health insurance coverage through an Obamacare health insurance exchange in 2014, you’re supposed to receive an extra form this year: Form 1095-A. You can’t file your tax return without it. Quite a few Twitter users haven’t received the form yet, however. And some of those who did said the form contains incorrect information.

@healthcaregov unable to file taxes because SLCSP is blank on 1095A & web calculator & marketplace are clueless on the phone… just wonderful

@CoveredCA day 58 since filing 1095 dispute. Not in sec mbox. Pls skip empty apologies. What happens when you go over your 60 day deadline?

@fact275 @CoveredCA same, never got a 1095 despite being enrolled for 8 months and receiving 8 months of APTC.

The IRS is encouraging people who have not received the 1095-A form to file for an extension:
Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) exchange users who are missing accurate Form 1095-A notices should file requests for automatic extensions, on Form 4868, by April 15.
The IRS plans to give individuals who get 1095-A’s late until Oct. 15 to file their tax returns.
