To get a quote: a few details
Learning about your options doesn't require submitting documents right away. For an initial quote, the following is usually enough:
- Your ZIP code.
- The age of each person you want to cover.
- Your approximate annual household income.
- How many people you include on your tax return.
- If anyone uses tobacco, because it can affect the plan's price.
To enroll: prepare these documents
- ID of the person making the application.
- Social Security number or immigration document of those applying for coverage.
- Proof of income: pay stubs, W-2, tax return or, if you're self-employed, an estimate of your net income.
- Information about the insurance your employer offers, if any.
- If it's a Special Enrollment Period, the document that proves your life event.
People in your household who aren't applying for coverage for themselves normally don't need to provide their Social Security number.
Tips to avoid delays
- Use the same names and dates of birth that appear on your documents.
- Have your list of doctors and medications on hand to review the networks.
- If your income changes during the year, let them know so your subsidy can be updated.
