My wife came here on a K-1 in 2009, thank you all for the emotional support. She is a U.S. citizen now, we are thinking of bringing her Mom, a Filipina here as well. How do most people take care of Medical Insurance?
I work at a company with great insurance, and I have VA due to a disability, but I would like to retire in a few years, and the insurance issue really has me worried. I have been without medical insurance many times, but that was long before Obama care, which really stinks in comparison to most other forms of insurance. Thankfully during that period I didn't have any of the long term (diabetes, with BP issues) that I have now. If I am on Medicare, how could I insure her? Of course, we would have her apply for a green card as soon as it is allowable, but I don't know what my options would be.
In a previous life I had another Mother-in-law come here, she got Social Security but that loophole may have been closed. She and my ex have since passed away.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Kansas is where she would live.
