Step #1
Calculate Your Gross Income

Modified Adjusted Gross Income for Health Insurance Subsidy

How To Figure Your MAGI

Modified Adjusted Gross Income

 

​Calculating Your Income

When you apply for a subsidy you’ll need to estimate your income (before taxes) for the year in which you’re applying for insurance. If you are not sure, you’ll have to make your best estimate. We recommend you speak with your accountant to get your “Modified Adjusted Gross Income” calculation.

Modified Adjusted Income for most folks will be the Adjusted Gross Income on line 37 of your 1040, or 21 of your form 1040A or line 4 of your 1040EZ of your tax return.

  • Alimony – After 1/1/2019 DO NOT include.

We suggest you refer to your federal income tax return to get a quick estimate of your AGI. On your tax return, please refer to:

  • Line 4 if you filed a Form 1040EZ
  • Line 21 if you filed a Form 1040A
  • Line 37 if you filed a Form 1040

Keep in mind, the subsidies are based off the “Household Modified Adjusted Income.”
