I qualify for premium tax credits, but I chose to pay my full monthly premium instead. Can I claim the amount of reduced premiums during tax time when I file my taxes?

Yes, when you file your 2024 taxes – premium tax credits that you did not receive throughout the year will be paid back to you as a tax refund.
