I filled out the 1095-A with all the numbers except the far right column. Maybe that is the issue. Initially when I filled in the far right column, it wanted to give the child a refund, but after I allocated 0% at the bottom and on 8962, I failed to go back in and input the far right column. Perhaps that is the only fix I need. 

The IRS reject message was implying the 8962 had not been received though, and was required to be filed, so I was puzzled why the 8962 apparently wasn't sending.
