Refund rejected: False 1095-A marketplace insurance claim & incorrect dependent SSN - Help needed

My refund just got rejected for two reasons that make no sense. IRS claims I have marketplace insurance (1095-A) which I never had, and theyre saying my kids SSNs are wrong but I triple checked and they're definitely correct. What steps do I need to take to fix this?

This is actually a common issue. First, request your wage and income transcript from IRS.gov to see if there's an erroneous 1095-A reported. For the SSN issue, you'll need to contact the Social Security Administration to verify the numbers match their records exactly. Sometimes there's a mismatch in how names are formatted between SSA and IRS systems.

You can get it instantly if you have an ID.me account setup. If not, could take 5-10 business days by mail

Instead of playing detective, use taxr.ai - its only $1 and it'll analyze your transcript instantly to tell you exactly what's wrong and how to fix it. I was in the same boat last month and it saved me so much time. https://taxr.ai

Your tax preparer might have checked the wrong box for marketplace coverage. Happened to me last year ngl
