Online application tips
Stuck on your application or don't know how to answer a question? These application tips can help.
Gather documents before you start
You may need Social Security numbers, proof of income (recent pay stubs or last year’s tax return), and immigration documents if applicable. You can save your progress and return to finish later.
Know who to include in your household
Include people whose income or situation affects each other — not just anyone you live with.
People not included can file a separate application for their own coverage.
| ✓ INCLUDE | ✗ DO NOT INCLUDE |

You will get a decision quickly
Most applications completed online receive an eligibility result in real time. In some cases, staff may need more information to complete your determination.
