Hello!

 

This is a very unique question that I just thought of regarding my situation.

 

I just filed for my husband and we received the I-130 receipt for the CR1 visa.  I am currently in graduate school to become a physician assistant which is great, but does not allow me to currently have a job or a 2017/ 2018 tax return.  My parents are co-sponsoring with me so financially, I will not have an issue.  The problem I just thought of is that I am 26 so I do not qualify any longer to be on my parent's Aetna plan for health insurance and I had to pick up Husky quickly for this current year.  I could not join my school's insurance at the time that I was dropped from my parent's plan, enrollment was not open.  In May of 2019 I will graduate and will be making a very good salary and have full benefits from my job.

 

Is my current health insurance status going to cause an issue with my husband's visa processing when we get to the NVC step?  I need to decide if I want to try to get on to the school's insurance before my next semester will begin.  I have never used any other state-funded program and neither has my family.  The school's insurance is extremely pricey so I was hoping not to opt in for it this upcoming semester, but if I have to, I certainly will.

 

Thanks in advance!

No.

Your situation with health insurance had no bearing on the visa application.

Health insurance for the petitioner will not be an issue.
