    Your actual AGI may now be higher than what you originally estimated when you started receiving your premium tax credits. If so, you have to pay back the amounts that you were not eligible for. That's the purpose of the Form 1095-A.

    So because my income went up then I have to pay taxes due to my insurance?

    It's not a tax. You are paying back subsidized premiums based on your income.
