How do you change the family tax size when calculating the premium tax Credit. The children are listed on the 1095-A, but are not dependents anymore. The taxpayer is getting a big credit due to the program not calculating the family size correct.

The "tax family" size (line 1 of the 8962) is the number of people on the tax return. So there is no need to change it.
However, I suspect you are misunderstanding somethings. A smaller family size would DECREASE the credit, so they are getting a smaller credit than if they were claiming the children as dependents.
