  • Families and marketplace enrollees: People who buy coverage on the Affordable Care Act marketplace would keep the higher premium tax credits that lower monthly premiums through January 1, 2028, covering tax years that begin in 2026 and later.
  • Higher-income households: Taxpayers with household income above 400 percent of the federal poverty line would remain eligible for the temporary enhanced rules because the bill extends the same date changes for that group.

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.
