I’m more curious about the reverse situation after age 26 😂
Same my dad is in a union and gets amazing health coverage. Wouldn’t want to lose that
If you already claim them as a tax dependent, you can most likely add them. If not, the same criteria in tax apply to health care dependents (live with you, they make less than 3K or so a year, they rely on your support for more than half of their expenses). Check but there are ways.
How old are your parents? Are they Medicare eligible? Are they listed as your dependents on your tax return?
Good questions - My mother is over 65 years old who can’t see very well now and is currently residing overseas whereas I’m a F1 student here. Wanted to establish the channels before moving her here on a plane.
You can’t have a dependent over 26, generally.
It’s pretty clear on most health plans that any dependents over 26 aren’t eligible to be on coverage. I claimed my Mom on taxes each year, but couldn’t add her to our health plan. Ridiculous, but so is our healthcare system in general.
