With the passage of the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, Congress gave the health-insurance-premium tax credit a rightful upgrade.

What did lawmakers do?

They removed the much criticized “subsidy cliff” for higher-income individuals during 2021 and 2022.

What is the subsidy cliff?

A little history… Until 2021, self-employed and small-business owners were required to pay up to 9.83% of their modified adjusted-gross-income for premium tax-credit coverage. And then the premium tax-credit coverage would pay for the rest.

Here’s what the problem was.

The premium tax credit was available only for enrollees whose modified adjusted gross income was 100% to 400% of the federal poverty level (FPL).

If your modified adjusted-gross-income was one dollar over 400% of the FPL (for a family your size), you got no tax credit. Not a penny. This means…

        You

                  Fell

                            Over

                                     The

                                               Subsidy

                                                                  Cliff

Here’s how Congress finally helped you.

Because Congress abolished the subsidy cliff, you’re now entitled to a premium tax-credit no matter how high your income is!

Of course, the devil is in the details and that’s where the Tax Reduction Letter comes in.
