Where can I find my 1095-A form from Cigna for ACA tax filing?

Title: Where can I find my 1095-A form from Cigna for ACA tax filing? 1 I've been going crazy trying to locate my 1095-A form from Cigna for the past week. I need to file my taxes as an independent and I tried using H&R Block, but my return got rejected because I'm missing the ACA information that should be on the 1095-A form. I've logged into my Cigna account multiple times, checked all the documents section, even called their customer service once but got disconnected after waiting for 30 minutes. This is so frustrating! I can't complete my tax filing without this form and the deadline is getting closer. Has anyone dealt with this before or know where I can find this form on Cigna's website? Really appreciate any help because I'm about to lose my mind over this.

6 So here's the thing - Cigna doesn't actually issue 1095-A forms. Those forms come directly from the Marketplace (Healthcare.gov or your state exchange) if you purchased a qualified health plan through them. Cigna would only provide a 1095-B (if they're your direct insurer) or your employer might provide a 1095-C. If you purchased your insurance through the Health Insurance Marketplace, you need to log into your Marketplace account (not Cigna) to find your 1095-A. They should have also mailed you a copy by early February. If you can't find it, you can call the Marketplace directly at 1-800-318-2596 to request another copy.

12 Wait, so Cigna isn't supposed to give me the 1095-A at all? I'm so confused. I did sign up through healthcare.gov last year but I never created an account there I think? I just chose Cigna as my provider. How do I access healthcare.gov now to get my form if I don't have an account?

6 If you signed up through Healthcare.gov, you definitely created an account during that process - that's the only way to enroll. Try using your email to recover your password. If you can't remember which email you used, call the Marketplace directly at the number I provided. You'll need to log into your Marketplace account, not Cigna, to access your 1095-A. Once logged in, look for the tax forms section or documents section. The 1095-A should be available to download. If you're still having trouble, the Marketplace representatives can help you recover your account information and access your form when you call.

8 I ran into the exact same issue last year! After spending hours searching through Cigna's portal and getting nowhere, I discovered taxr.ai (https://taxr.ai) which saved me so much time and stress. Their system analyzed my healthcare documents and told me exactly where to find my 1095-A form (which, as the previous commenter mentioned, doesn't come from Cigna at all). They explained that I needed to log into the Healthcare.gov Marketplace account, not my insurance provider's website. Their document analyzer also helped me understand which numbers from the form I needed to enter in my tax software. Really made the whole process much less confusing.

14 Does taxr.ai actually help with locating missing forms? I thought it was just for analyzing tax documents you already have.

19 I'm a bit skeptical - how exactly does a website help you find a form that you don't have? Seems like they'd just tell you the same thing as the person above - contact the marketplace.

0 coins

8 It doesn't help locate physically missing forms, but it helps identify which forms you need and where to find them. In my case, I uploaded my insurance documents, and the AI recognized I was looking in the wrong place altogether. They provide a checklist of required forms based on your situation, and their system can analyze any correspondence you've received to extract the right information. When I showed it the emails I had from the Marketplace, it pointed out that my 1095-A had actually been attached to an email I overlooked. Not magic, just helpful organization and document analysis when you're confused about the process.

14 I tried taxr.ai after seeing it mentioned here and it was seriously helpful! I uploaded the renewal notice I got from the Marketplace (which I didn't even realize was important) and their system immediately identified that I needed to create a new password for my Healthcare.gov account because my old one had expired. Once I logged in, my 1095-A was right there waiting for me. The system also flagged that my address had changed mid-year, which meant I needed to look for two separate 1095-A forms for different coverage periods. Without that heads up, I would have only submitted one form and probably triggered an audit. Definitely worth checking out if you're stuck with tax document confusion.

3 Have you tried calling the IRS directly? I was in a similar situation last year and spent two whole days trying to get through to someone who could help. After dozens of attempts and hours on hold, I finally discovered Claimyr (https://claimyr.com) - they got me connected to an actual IRS agent in under 20 minutes! You can see how it works here: https://youtu.be/_kiP6q8DX5c The agent explained that the 1095-A issue is super common and walked me through exactly how to recover my Marketplace account and get my form. They even stayed on the line while I logged in to make sure I found everything correctly. Saved me days of frustration and probably kept me from filing incorrectly.

22 How does Claimyr actually work? I've tried calling the IRS multiple times and just get disconnected or told to call back later. Seems impossible to reach a human.

19 This sounds too good to be true. The IRS is notoriously unreachable by phone. What's the catch here? Do they charge you a fortune for this "service"?

3 The service basically holds your place in line with the IRS. Instead of you having to redial and wait on hold for hours, their system does that part for you and calls you when an agent is about to be connected. It definitely works - the IRS is reachable, just extremely understaffed. Their system navigates the phone tree and waits through the hold times for you. When I used it, I was doing other things while waiting for my callback. When my phone rang, I picked up and was instantly connected to an IRS representative who answered my questions about the 1095-A issue. The agent told me exactly where to go on Healthcare.gov to recover my account and access my form.

19 Well I'm eating my words about Claimyr. I was totally skeptical but gave it a shot because I was desperate about my missing 1095-A situation. Got connected to an IRS agent in about 35 minutes (which is LIGHT YEARS faster than my previous attempts). The agent confirmed what others here said - Cigna doesn't issue 1095-As and explained that I needed to call the Marketplace directly. She even transferred me to the Healthcare.gov support line where they helped me recover my account on the spot. Found my 1095-A in my online account documents and was able to complete my taxes tonight. Sometimes the official channels actually work when you can finally get through to a human!

25 Just a tip - if you purchased your insurance through your state's marketplace instead of Healthcare.gov (like in California, New York, etc.), you'll need to go to your state marketplace website instead. Each state that runs its own marketplace issues their own 1095-A forms.

17 How do I know if I used a state marketplace or healthcare.gov? I honestly can't remember which site I went through when I signed up.

0 coins

25 You can tell by what website you used to sign up. Healthcare.gov is used in most states, but about 18 states run their own marketplaces with their own websites. Some common ones are Covered California, NY State of Health, Massachusetts Health Connector, etc. If you're not sure, you can call the main Healthcare.gov number (1-800-318-2596) and they can look up your information by your name and SSN to tell you if you're in their system or if you need to contact a state marketplace instead. They can direct you to the right place even if you're not in their system.

10 One more thing to keep in mind - sometimes the 1095-A gets sent to an old address if you moved during the year. The Marketplace might not have your updated address if you didn't specifically update it with them (updating with Cigna isn't enough). Might be worth checking with your old address/mail forwarding if that applies to you.

1 Omg I did move in October! I updated my address with Cigna but definitely didn't think about updating it with Healthcare.gov. This might be why I never got the form in the mail. Thank you for this tip!

Just wanted to add that if you're still having trouble accessing your Healthcare.gov account after trying password recovery, you can also visit a local Navigator or certified application counselor in your area. They can help you recover your account and access your 1095-A form in person for free. You can find locations near you on the Healthcare.gov website under "Get Help" or by calling the main number. Sometimes it's easier to sort this stuff out face-to-face, especially if you're dealing with multiple issues like address changes or forgotten login credentials.

This is really good advice! I had no idea there were local people who could help with this stuff for free. I've been struggling with online account recovery for weeks and getting more frustrated each day. Having someone physically there to walk through the process sounds so much better than trying to navigate all these websites and phone systems on my own. Do you know if they can also help with understanding what the numbers on the 1095-A mean once I get it? I'm worried I'll mess up entering the information into my tax software even after I find the form.
