More premium help for Marketplace enrollees
If enacted, this bill would extend the temporary enhanced premium tax credits through January 1, 2028. It would apply to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2025 (tax years starting in 2026 and later). If you claim the premium tax credit for Marketplace health coverage, you would likely pay lower net monthly premiums while the extension is in effect. Some people with household income above 400% of the federal poverty line who qualified for temporary help could keep that help until January 1, 2028.
