The federal penalty for not having health insurance has been suspended. However, effective January 1, 2020, California residents must obtain minimum essential health care coverage to avoid the new California individual health care mandate penalty enacted by SB 78 (Ch. 19-38). Generally speaking, an individual who fails to secure coverage will be subject to an annual penalty of $695 or more when they file their 2020 California tax return.
