Second Chance to Sign Up For Health Insurance

Miss signing up for healthcare this year? If so you may be in luck!

The U.S. government extended the healthcare open enrollment period for people who qualify. Are you someone who can still sign up? Read below and find out.

Over 11 million people signed up for healthcare on the ObamaCare exchanges before the February 15th deadline. But the government just announced a new “make up” enrollment period: March 15th through April 30th. You can sign up for healthcare during this period if:

You do NOT currently have a healthcare plan that you bought on an ObamaCare exchange
You paid the ObamaCare penalty on your 4014 tax return AND you didn’t know about the penalty until you filed your taxes

If you’re eligible to sign up, be sure to check out my video that helps you confidently make the healtchcare decisions that are right for you.
