Finally my parents got approved, got the GC by mail last week.

 

Are they eligible for any help or medical insurance? We live in IL

How old are they?

 

Technically, you are responsible for helping the with things like this. That is the reason you sign the affidavit of support. 

 

They  are free to search Obamacare for plans. Certain states allow for some reprieve but not many. If over 65 they may also have some help. There is a thread explaining.

 

Things like this should have been planned for. This issue is often a problem for those immigrating parents as the cost of healthcare can be extremely expensive in the US.

They can sign up for the ACA with no restriction.

They are also eligible for Emergency Medicaid with no consequence for the sponsor.

You wanted to have your parents move here; now you have to support them if they cannot support themselves.  They need to dispose of their property in their native country and bring all of their funds to the US to support themselves. Expect them to reort any pensions they receive as well.

 

Sign them up for language lessons if they are not functional in American English and help them sign up for jobs.  Many native born Americans work long past age 70 to pay their bills.

Fortunately they have a Sponsor.
