I am unemployed and cannot afford ANY health care- I can make no payments at all. I have no taxes to pay as I have no income, so tax credits are useless to me.
Obamacare is a joke.
Here's some good news for you and it is not a joke, Fact Finder. New Jersey has expanded medicaid. Since you are unemployed, you can sign up for medicaid. In New Jersey it is probably going to cost you little to nothing. Did you sign on to the healthcare.gov website and go through the signing up process? They had to tell you that New Jersey would cover you with Medicaid. There is no deadline to sign up for expanded medicaid and they cannot hold your assets against you.
