Am I eligible for Commonwealth Care? Posted: 11-13-07 22:41pm
I'm eligible for Commonwealth Care and my
monthly premium is $35 (i'm assuming
that's based on my old income when I
applied for it). What I don't get is, how
am I eligible? I make $6k a year and the
other person in my household makes $55k a
year? That's over 300% of the federal
poverty level and should make me
ineligble. I don't remember the
information I gave, but it must've
mentioned that my household is two or they
must've checked it to see if it was real.
Or do they go by the income of the
individual who applied?
What happens if I enroll, pay the
premiums, and they later find out there
was a mistake and I wasn't eligble?

That's what I think, but on all the
information about the program it mentions
the household thing. I called to ask and
the first thing that came out of his mouth
was "How many people are in your
household?"

i dunno?
they usually dont over look things like
that
so im pretty sure if they saw that in the
first place then they know about the
household members and income?
im not sure maybe you can call and ask
them what they go on?
