This survey displays the percentage of U.S. adults that are aware of the requirement to report health insurance status on tax returns, as of March 2015. Some 11 percent of adults believed this requirement had begun last year concerning the 2013 taxes. The right answer is that the requirement starts in 2015 concerning the 2014 taxes. Many citizens still claim that the Affordable Care Act has had minimal impacts on their family health care. The opinion on this law remains fairly divided across the country.
