Hi everyone,

I'm an US citizen living abroad and will be for summer research at a university in Illinois, where I'm required to have an ACA-comparable plan if I want to avoid the $1000 option they offered. However, I found most plans from marketplace are for international students with F1/ J1/ OPT visa, which I'm not eligible for, and my parents don't have an insurance for me to be covered with either.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
