Hi,

I have some questions:

I am US citizen. If I apply the Green Card for my Parents:

1. Is there any age limitation ? My father is 80 now.
2. May my parents apply for FREE medical care since I file the I-864 Form? - after they get the green card.


Thank you very much!

There is no such thing as free medical care here in the US for new immigrants. If there is, please let me know because that would be great info to have handy.

Diana

You mean that they can not apply the low income medical insurance?

Could any person help me on this?

Thanks!

Jerry

new immigrants that have not paid into the medicare system with income taxes are rarely granted coverage or subsidized health care. your best bet would be to inquire into private non profit services or low cost clinic insurance for people without medicare/medicaid coverage.

for instance, you may be able to acquire private coverage good for clinic visits only for around 50 dollars a month or so, but full comprehensive coverage for hospitalization, expensive treatment programs, etc....will not be cheap for elderly people.
