Hi, Ive sent out our AOS package last week but recently found out that I will need medication for an emergency that has happened. Neither my husband or I have med insurance. I am not working due to waiting on green card and I can't let my husband know about my situation.

Does anyone know if I'm eligible for financial help with the cost? I'm assuming no but any advice?thank you in advance.

No, she-and you-are pulling anti-choice tactics in an effort to guilt the OP into changing her mind. You might as well be holding inaccurate protest signs. :| It's her body, it's her choice. Period.

This is a hard enough time for her already, let her decision be hers to deal with.

Why would anyone cheer about making such a tough choice in life? No one even implied anyone was, or would be cheering. I do not think the OP should have said anything here. It was/is not anyone else'

Try the discount pharmacy lists at major stores like Walmart. Sometimes they carry generic medicine at very low prices. Of course you will need to pay for the medical visit to get the prescription.

Thank you Belinda63 but I think this is something I have to take at the doctors office so it'll have to be paid for at the office. I think I'm outta luck. My husband is not being supportive of this situation and I can't ask my parents for help :(

Why aren't you telling your husband, that's strange. Wouldn't he be supportive while you need medical treatment?

You are not eligible for means tested benefits.

Best of luck with whatever is happening to you.

ROC from CR-1 visa (Green Card expiration date was Nov 24th 2016)

 

Link to the evidence I submitted. Be sure to send evidence spanning your entire marriage (especially for K-1) or as far back as you can. Just one or two bank statements will not cut it. I primarily focused on the two years of living here since I came in on a CR-1. If you don't have the fundamentals (i.e. joint accounts/policies), you can explain why in the covering letter. E.g. "While we do not have joint utilities, we both contribute to them from our joint bank account".

 

September 26th 2016: I-751 package sent to CSC

September 28th 2016: Package delivered
September 30th 2016: Check cashed
October 3rd 2016: NOA1 received with receipt date of 09/28/16
November 3rd 2016: Biometrics received with appointment date of 11/14/16.
November 14th 2016: Attended biometrics appointment
October 30th 2017: Infopass appointment to get I-551 stamp
February 26th 2018: I-751 case number (aka the NOA1 receipt number) becomes trackable
March 14th 2018: Submitted service request due to being outside of processing time.

March 15th 2018: ROC approved. 535 days (1 year, 5 months and 17 days)

March 29th 2018: Card being produced

April 4th 2018: Card mailed out

April 6th 2018: Card in hand. Has incorrect "resident since" date. Submitted service request on I-751 case (typographical error on permanent resident card) and an I-90 online.

April 2018 - August 7th 2018: Tons of service requests, emails and now senator involvement to get my corrected green card back because what the heck, USCIS. Also some time in May I sent a letter to Potomac telling them I want to withdraw my I-90 since CSC were handling it.

August 8th 2018: Card in production thanks to the direct involvement of Senator Sherrod Brown's team

August 13th 2018: Card mailed

August 15th 2018: Card in hand with correct date. :joy:

October 31st 2018: Potomac sends out a notice stating they have closed out my I-90 per my request. Yay for no duplicate card drama.

Yes, everyone including married couples sometimes need some private space for peace of mind,

but how can an "emergency" condition not be shared with the husband, and how can he not be supportive?

Something is not right here...

I really hope I am wrong...but if this is unexpected pregnancy from another man...

...

it's really bad to start out a marriage like this...and I will just save my remaining words...

Whatever it is...hope you get it taken care...
