Expatriate Health Insurance

Question:

US residents insurance I am a resident of the US with a permanent address in Palmyra PA. However, I am now serving on a 2 year assignment on loan from the State Department to the UN in Rome Italy. Question. Since this is a limited term assignment and my pernament residence is in the US do I apply for insurance coverage as a US resident?

Answer:

You can not apply as US resident because you are currently NOT US resident.


I think you misunderstood my circumstances. I am working here under a work VISA. I am still a US resident according to the State department. If you hold to your answer, do you have any product that fits my circumstances? Thank you


No, I have not misunderstood. Definition of US resident is different with different people such as immigration department, IRS, insurance companies etc. e.g., You may be considered US residents as per IRS because they still want your money! However, for insurance purposes, if you are physically not residing in US, you are NOT US resident. We certainly have products will fit your circumstances.
