Part 2: Determine eligibility and request reimbursement
Complete this section to request reimbursement. You can request reimbursement for premiums you paid for qualified coverage
while you were eligible and enrolling in the monthly HCTC Program. For each month you are requesting reimbursement, you need
to confirm that you 1) met all eligibility requirements for the HCTC and 2) made payments directly to a qualified health plan.
• For PBGC recipients- You can request reimbursement beginning with the month following the date printed on your HCTC
Eligibility Certificate (sent with your original Program Kit) up to when you received your first invoice from the HCTC Program.*
• For TAA, ATAA, and RTAA recipients- You can request reimbursement beginning with the month of the date printed on your
HCTC Eligibility Certificate (sent with your original Program Kit) up to when you received your first invoice from the HCTC Program.
*To ensure you receive information about the HCTC as quickly as possible, the HCTC Program sends the Program Kit (including the Eligibility
Certificate) as soon as we receive your information from the PBGC, which is prior to the first month for which you can make a reimbursement request.

Note: If you were eligible for the HCTC and paid for qualified coverage prior to the date on your HCTC Eligibility Certificate, you may
be able to receive the HCTC when you file your federal tax return using IRS Form 8885.

following statements were true on the first day of that month.
