좋은 크래딧 기록과 Medical자격하고는 아무런 상관이 없는것을 아시길바랍니다. 영주권자가 월페어 혜택을 받을때 확실하게 알아보시고 신청하시는것이 좋겠습니다. 연방정부 직원으로서 조언할수있는 부분이 있고 또 할수없는것이 확실이 있읍니다. 재정보증을 한사람이 미국 정부에게 모든것을 보조하기로 약속하신것을 잊지 마십시요. Sponsorship — Has someone signed an INS contract promising
to support you and to pay back any government benefits you get
after you get your green card?
Before deciding whether you are likely to become a public charge, the INS must
consider all the facts. They must look at:
Age — are you too old to keep working?
Health — are you so sick that you cannot work? Will you be
unable to pay high medical bills?
Education and skills — can you get a job?
Income — do you earn enough to support yourself?
Family size — how many children do you support?
Sponsorship — Has someone signed an INS contract promising
to support you and to pay back any government benefits you get
after you get your green card?
Public Charge does not apply to legal permanent residents unless they leave the
U.S. for more than 180 days.
Will my sponsor have to re-pay the benefits?
It depends. Your sponsor does not have to repay any benefits if any of the
following is true:
•You got your green card with the old affidavit of support (Form I-134).
•You get health care before you get your green card.
•The services you got were for emergency health care. This includes emergency
health care covered by restricted Medi-Cal.
•The services you got were for an immunization or other treatment for a
contagious disease.
•You, your husband, your wife, and your parents (while you were under age 18)
together have worked 40 quarters, according to Social Security. You can
check with the Social Security Administration. Call 1-800-772-1213 and ask
how many quarters you and your family have worked.
•You are a citizen when you get health care. This includes children born in the
United States.
These are only a few examples. Even if you are not listed, you still might be able to
get health care without hurting your sponsor. If you are not in any of these
categories, contact your health consumer center or an immigration lawyer to get
advice about how government health care could affect your sponsor.
