Healthcare tax credits for sponsored parent

[whateverd 15]

So I know government assistance like Medicare or Medicaid are not allowed for sponsored immigrants. But on healthcare.gov there is a tax credit based on income.

 

I sponsored my dad but he is filing his taxes by himself and based on his income he qualify for tax credit that paying his health insurance. Will this affect me or affect him in the future?

An immigrant who obtains a green card is treated as a lawful permanent resident and is considered a U.S. tax resident for U.S. income tax purposes

Yes, there are several tax benefits available for immigrants, including the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and the Child Tax Credit (CTC). These tax credits can help reduce your tax liability and increase your tax refund.Apr 6, 2023

 

No. Under current law, receiving the Child Tax Credit or other Federal tax credits that you are eligible for will not affect your immigration status, your ability to get a green card, or your future eligibility for immigration benefits.
