1095-A Warning at E-file [RESOLVED]

This morning (3/6/24), an enhancement was released to indicate to preparers, if carryforward was used, that a 2022 return had a 1095-A added but it had not been added to the 2023 return. However, it seems the 1095-A warning (screenshot below) is being presented at e-file regardless of if the prior year return had a 1095-A. We should have an update out during our normal Friday morning (3/8/24) window to correct this issue. NOTE: This is only a warning and not a block. All returns can still be transmitted as normal.

  • EXPECTED BEHAVIOR: If carryforward is used and the 2022 return had a 1095-A present, display a warning at e-file (screenshot below) if the 2023 return does not have a 1095-A present.
  • CURRENT BEHAVIOR: Below screenshot is being presented when the 2022 return was accepted and carryforward used in 2023 regardless if 1095-A was present on prior year.
