  1. In New Jersey, residents are subject to a penalty for not having health insurance which is tied to the state’s individual mandate. For the 2023 tax year, the penalty is either 2.5% of your annual household income that exceeds the filing threshold or a flat fee of $695 per adult and $347.50 per child, up to a maximum of $2,085 per family, whichever is higher.

    This means the exact amount can vary significantly based on your income and family size. It’s a good idea to calculate both options to see which one applies to your situation. If you have any more questions or need help figuring it out, feel free to ask!
