K1 health insurance question

[Jonathan and Tina 4]

Okay, I thought based on above you had started to apply for AOS. Since you haven't I'd suggest to do that as soon as possible, because that's going to be your main qualifier for Obamacare.

I don't know the site you're meaning, but I have yet to see anyone talk about being refused O'care because they didn't have an EAD. If you adjust and get an NOA 1, that's possibly a document you're going to need. Have they been given the run-around by exchange employees that don't know what they are talking about (yes)? I think to give you 100% confidence in the matter it would be a good idea to contact the O'care employees and discuss the qualifications and options. Your wife qualifies simply out of being recently married and having her coverage dropped already.

Now if you look at the list of documentation that can be used you'll see EAD listed sure.. but you'll also see an (I-797), alien number, foreign passport, even an I-94. There's quite a few adjustment people that have successfully signed up to their state and federal exchanges on here iirc.

If for some reason you just can't get it to work, or you don't want to wait for an EAD (if that is what they insist upon), then I think it would be time to try private and you'd both get insurance with little fuss.

Okay. Thanks for your help and time. Much appreciated.
