Thanks for the tip! Atm this is all hypothetical thinking ahead stuff so nothing I can specifically check yet. Will keep in mind for the future though

I did this. Thanks for the tip. Imma go cry now

Lovely response! Super helpful! Yeah I read and looked up her meds previously and believe them all to be FDA approved and such. So theoretically, she should be able to bring her stash across the border.

It’s hard to say what the future will be like as this is currently a preparatory hypothetical (we haven’t officially tied the knot). But I imagine what would happen is we’d get married, she’d apply for her green card, get an SSN, and that would allow her to be on my plan. However, there’s a waiting period of 1-2 years where her status as an immigrant will be “pending.” In which case, I believe she’d have to use immigrant/visitor insurance like the one you mentioned. I don’t suppose these policies are known for being all that great for their coverage on primary care and/or psychiatry and/or getting your meds from the pharmacy. I already knew her prescriptions would be ridiculously priced here. Fortunately, I think she can switch to any generic brands. I’ve no doubt this is going to be an expensive pill to swallow (ba dum psh).
