ObamaCareâs individual mandate requires that most Americans obtain health insurance by 2014 or pay a tax penalty. The individual mandate went into effect at the beginning of January 2014 and continues each year.
This wonât affect your taxes if you are already covered by your employer, Medicare, or Medicaid. 2014 is the first year the health care reform law requires you to have health insurance coverage. Most individuals who do not have health insurance will owe a penalty, to be collected by the IRS via your tax return.The penalty starts at $95 in 2014 and increases to $325 in 2015 and to $695 per person by 2016.ealth insurance exchanges and employers will report information about health insurance coverage to the IRS, so you wonât have to worry about it. In 2014, this reporting requirement will help the IRS figure out if you are eligible for the tax credit in 2014.
