I understand I will receive a notice each year, can update my information, and may opt out at any time.*

Otherwise, the person who files taxes in my household may have to repay the credit.

I understand that if any of my information changes, it may affect my eligibility for the premium tax credit.

    • If anyone on your application is enrolled in Marketplace coverage and is later found to have other qualifying health coverage, the Marketplace may automatically end their Marketplace coverage. Do you agree?*
