Was trying to help a friend. Wanted to keep her above medicaid level but otherwise as low as possible. I might have overshot the IRA contribution and gotten her below the approx 16,300$ threshold for medicaid (in a state that did expand medicaid). Would she lose her aca subsidy she already got for 2015 and owe money?! I was hoping to get her even more of a subsidy and therefore "refund" at tax time, but Might have messed it up? Although it seems unlikely the government would want to go after people who are poor...
But it leads to the next question (assuming they don't make you pay back the subsidy)- if you want to keep an aca plan rather than medicaid, why couldn't you just overestimate your income every year and pay as little as possible but keep the aca plan?
thanks
