  2. Clicking on the "Go to my Applications and Coverage" link at the top of the page.
  3. Selecting the previous tax year application under "Your Existing Applications." For example, select the 2024 application during the 2025 calendar year.
  4. Clicking on "Tax Forms" from the menu on the left of the page.
  5. Downloading all 1095-A forms shown on the screen.
