The Affordable Care Act’s enhanced premium tax credits (PTCs) have now expired. The IRS recently updated its FAQs on PTCs.

The advanced PTC is then reconciled with the taxpayer’s actual income at tax filing time, and the taxpayer must pay back any excess PTCs.

Generally, the FAQ updates were made to questions related to the cap because it’s been removed for tax years beginning after Dec. 31, 2025. Read the FAQs: https://bit.ly/4pokxNA
