Medicaid and Filing for AoS

[RubiKen 1]

I am very humbled in having to post this. I hope that I have found the correct forum for my questions.

I needed a co-sponsor to bring my Fiance here to America. We are now married and about to file the AoS paperwork. In the last couple of weeks I have been to the emergency room for treatment of sever sciatica and back problems. I will likely need to have surgery to correct the problems.

My question is: Can I alone apply for medicaid, not listing my wife as a person needing, applying or requiring medicaid and still do the AoS paperwork (and nothing interferes with the immigration process)?

I had planned to finalize my AoS packet and have in the mail on Wednesday.

Are you USC? or an LPR?

If so, you should get emergency medicaid from Dept. of Social Services. Call them and sort it out?

Immigration has nothing to do w/ sponsor falling sick. They are unrelated.

I am a US Citizen. I have never had a public benefit. I declined the ACA before the deadline.

I was just seeking to make certain that if a person in the intending immigrants household had a public benefit (the sponsor in this case) that it would not affect the immigration process and I would not have assets seized as if it were the immigrant receiving benefits.
