How to respond to CA 2020 tax penalty notice? I forgot to indicate I had health coverage

Personal Finance & Money Asked on August 13, 2021

I received this mail yesterday:

PICTURE OF MAIL

I am a student with F1 visa status and filed both federal and state taxes for 2019 and 2020. I do have an external scholarship that includes a very good health insurance. I filed 540NR for 2020 CA tax, and the filing instructions I followed did not say anything about line 91 (health care coverage checkbox), which I skipped. I believe they thought I don’t have a health insurance and enforced the penalty on me.

Is there a way to go about this? Shall I contact my insurance or just amend my 540NR? I appreciate the help!

One Answer

Amend your taxes to calculate them correctly. Sign your amended return and send it off. Then attach a copy of the amended return to your response to the Notice you received.

Do all of this before the date of the deadline to respond to the Notice.
