Religious conscience. You are a member of a religious sect that is recognized as conscientiously opposed to accepting any insurance benefits. The Social Security Administration administers the process for recognizing these sects according to the criteria in the law.

Health care sharing ministry. You are a member of a recognized health care sharing ministry.

Indian tribes. You are a member of a federally recognized Indian tribe.
No filing requirement. Your income is below the minimum threshold for filing a tax return. The requirement to file a federal tax return depends on your filing status, age and types and amounts of income. To find out if you are required to file a federal tax return, use the IRS Interactive Tax Assistant (ITA).

Short coverage gap. You went without coverage for less than three consecutive months during the year. For more information, see question 22.

Hardship. The Health Insurance Marketplace, also known as the Affordable Insurance Exchange, has certified that you have suffered a hardship that makes you unable to obtain coverage.

Unaffordable coverage options. You can’t afford coverage because the minimum amount you must pay for the premiums is more than eight percent of your household income.

Incarceration. You are in a jail, prison, or similar penal institution or correctional facility after the disposition of charges against you.

Not lawfully present. You are not a U.S. citizen, a U.S. national or an alien lawfully present in the U.S.

An individual who has received deferred action is authorized by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to be present in the United States, and is therefore considered by DHS to be lawfully present during the period deferred action is in effect. However, deferred action does not confer lawful status upon an individual, nor does it excuse any previous or subsequent periods of unlawful presence.

That's what I was thinking too. I think they got the term wrong on that page explaining the ACA, and what they meant is immigrants who have legal status do qualify.

There's a difference between having legal status and being lawfully present, which is what those of us with DACA have. We don't have legal status, hence we're in 'limbo', but we are lawfully present now & for as long as we have DACA.

Healthcare and DACA

"DACA-eligible individuals currently have the same access to health care and health insurance as undocumented immigrants. For example, individuals granted deferred action under the DACA policy:

*Cannot get comprehensive health insurance under Medicaid or CHIP in their state, unless the state has a separate, state-funded program or has elected the federal option to provide prenatal care regardless of the woman’s immigration status.

*Cannot apply for the high-risk insurance pool (the Pre-Existing Condition Insurance Plan, or PCIP), unless the state where they reside has a separate state-funded program.

*Cannot buy health insurance in the ACA’s health insurance marketplace, even at full cost.

*Are not eligible for federal tax credits to make private health insurance affordable (even if they are paying federal taxes) in the marketplace.

*Will not be required to have health insurance under the “individual mandate.”

*Will likely not be eligible for the Basic Health Program if their state has this program.

*Can buy full-price health insurance outside of the marketplace, if it is available.

*Can get health insurance through their employer, if it is available."
