For anyone whose consular officer asks for proof of health insurance 🇺🇸

>I wanted to share something that worked for us. We were asked to provide proof that my husband would have health insurance available after immigrating to the U.S.
>
>Since he wasn’t in the U.S. yet, I couldn’t actually enroll him in a Marketplace plan. Instead, I submitted the 2026 Marketplace Eligibility Notice from HealthCare.gov.
>
>The notice showed that he had applied for Marketplace coverage and was eligible to enroll in a 2026 Marketplace plan, with the Marketplace still confirming his immigration information.
>
>So, if you’re in a similar situation, you may be able to apply through the Marketplace and provide the Eligibility Notice as supporting evidence that the immigrant can obtain Marketplace coverage after arriving.
>
>Important: This is not proof that you already have active insurance—it’s an eligibility notice showing that Marketplace coverage is available/that the applicant is eligible to enroll.
>
>Attached below is a sample proof that I provided with my and my husband's details in the document as proof to the consular which was acceptable.
