1. What is the minimum income to qualify for a subsidy? Does withdrawal from ira count as income toward the qualifying amount?
2. If I receive $12000 from disability and take$5000 from my Ira, do I qualify for a subsidy.(Assuming the qualifying amount is $17000.)
3. Also, can I revise my previous year income tax and qualify for the previous subsidy as I mis -calculated originally and made $17000 .
1. 138% of poverty level – Click here to see a chart. Click here to have your income, subsidy and enhanced silver level calculated.
IRA withdrawal would go on line 15. I don’t know how much of your distribution would be taxable.
2. Yes. See our page on definition of MAGI income for more detail. It may make a difference on what type of disability that you have. SSI, SSDI, SDI etc. It’s basically line 37 of your 1040 and then add back in line 20 a & b.
3. The issue is not what you made last year, but what you are expecting to earn in 2016.
