We will be relocating to the USA at the beginning of July. Since I won't have employer-sponsored health insurance, for some months probably at least, I want to apply for an ACA health insurance policy for my family of four (wife, two small kids and myself).
The application asks if we have had a recent "life event" like - have we moved? The answer is yes, sort of. We will have moved, but we haven't yet.
I am trying to get the insurance in place and effective on or before the day we arrive. I don't want to arrive, apply then, and be without health insurance for the time it takes to process the application and buy the insurance, which could be a month or more.
The online application asks for the date of our move, but won't accept a future date.
I was going to put in the date we signed the lease for the new crib in the USA, about a week ago, but then I got to the "penalty of perjury" stuff on the signature page and hit pause. I don't want to "lie" about our move date.
I will happily explain this to any human involved in reviewing our application, but I don't want bureaucratic trouble.
What would you do?
