It appears that you are screwed. These codes indicate that the employer coverage was minimum coverage and affordable: http://www.ecsinsure.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Form-1095-C-Code-Cheatsheet.pdf If your adjusted gross income (actually there …

I will presume that by "Obamacare" you mean buying an ACA Exchange policy and getting the Premium Tax Credit, and that your daughter is a USA citizen. (Ironically, her situation for getting the premium tax credit would be BETTER if she were only a …

Yes, pretty much any income, even if it is untaxed, is included. The only exception is Roth IRA distribution, which does not count towards it.
-
No, and those "plans" being offered are junk. I'm sure that as part of the fine print disclosure that is thrown at you before you fork over your money there is a line about how this is not an ACA-compliant plan for the purpose of the tax required f…

Anyone that is considered a legal resident alien who does not have coverage provided for is eligible for both purchasing an ACA plan and getting the premium tax credit. Such aliens are not eligible for Medicaid, although in a feat of extraordinary …

I presume that you mean that you have had insurance through the ACA Exchange. My understanding is that all Trump's Executive Order does is not require someone to check a box on his 1040 form about whether or not he had insurance. The IRS will stil…

First off, if you are in a state that has done the Medicaid expansion, your income of $0 going forward qualifies you for Medicaid. If you are not in such a state, then that same $0 income would prohibit you from getting the premium tax credit, but …

> I tried to get this Obamacare stuff when it first came out because I have always tried to do what the law demands. There was supposed to be some kind of "assistance" co-pay thing offered, so I looked through all the plans on their website and f…

> Socialism is defined as a redistribution of wealth or production by a community or government as a whole. While the election of Trump has somewhat slowed socialism by preventing Hillary from continuing Obama's socialist agenda, we are far from…

TESLA, it sounds like you are in the income tranche of just barely over 400% of poverty - or perhaps stuck in the "family glitch" and thus have no availability of financial help buying a policy (or else you'd be getting a very nice tax credit). Th…

OK, I see your situation - termed te "family glitch" - but unfortunately, I cannot offer you any relief. The ACA had a few oversights in its drafting, and this is one of them; if the Republicans in Congress were not nihilists, this issue would have…

If by what you mean for "tax free" is that is not part of the total income on line 22 (or whatever it is) of the 1040 form, then yes, it does not count towards the income used by the ACA. Of course it depends on what the rest of your income is, sin…

I believe that COBRA can only be gotten for the employee or his family in total, not for individual members of his family. As to your situation, it seems that you are saying that your 2015 income was low, as will be your 2017 income, but that your …

You should get mad at your state's political leaders for not expanding Medicaid.
-
Your posting is missing a lot of information. I will presume that you had an ACA Exchange plan but then signed up for a plan as a university student, which triggered the Exchange to cancel your policy there. And now the company handling the univer…

Oh, and no individual mandate on the front end (the mandate in essence is back-loaded as per [5]).

Oops, somehow I skipped [3]!

"It isn't helping cover anyone. I have no insurance. I'm not paying 50% of my income for something I will never use" OK, so what is your plan if you get diagnosed with cancer and looking at $200K in treatment at the "rack rate" price? Are you goin…

"When you have millions of people out there who put themselves in danger on a daily basis for many reasons like sports, stunt men, skateboarders, then you will have expensive insurance because it's not natural." LOL, if folks were move active, th…

Suck? By whose standards? Does it suck for folks like me that have a cancer history and therefore not able to get private coverage? Does it suck for folks who actually get sick and now don't have to worry about rescission (i.e., the insurer deter…
