Q:My parents entered US in Jun 2019 on a valid B1 B2 visa. On their I94 they were allowed to stay 6 months. While they were here I applied for there green card and I have received I-797C notice of action for pending I-485 application. Do you think with the pending application they will be applicable to get an insurance with full coverage from you?

A:
Then based on their pending status we would recommend plans from the New Immigrant section of our website. These plans will cover any new illness or injury that occurs after the effective date. No short term plans will cover pre-existing conditions, preventative care, or routine maintenance. If you have additional questions about the plans please feel free to contact our office.

Q:I'm going to spend one semester in U.S.A studying at Virginia Tech. I have some questions regarding the insurance plans for Visa J1 holders (that is the Visa I have). Virginia Tech requites that any insurance which isn't sponsored by the school meets the criteria below: 1. The policy must offer adequate provider care within a 50 mile radius of the campus of enrollment. Coverage for emergency only care does not satisfy this requirement. (Adequate means Preferred Care coverage for nonemergency care.) 2. The policy must have a deductible of $500 per accident or illness or less. 3. The policy must provide major medical benefits of at least $500,000 per accident or illness. 4. The policy must provide a minimum benefit of $25,000 for repatriation of remains and $50,000 medical evacuation to the home country. (Repatriation provides transportation to your home country in the event of death.) 5. Medical expenses for pregnancy, childbirth and complications of pregnancy must be treated as any other illness under the policy. 6. The policy must provide Prescription Medication coverage (after co-pays) with a minimum of $500,000 per insured per policy year. 7. Coverage must be valid from either August 01, 2019, or the first day of enrollment at Virginia Tech, until July 31, 2020 or, if graduating, the last day of the month of the student's graduation. 8. The policy must cover Outpatient and Inpatient Mental Health Care as any other illness. 9. The policy must not have limits or internal dollar caps on coverage, including services, treatment or surgery. 10. The policy must not have a pre-existing condition waiting period. Can you help me finding a plan that meets all the criteria? I think the Exchange Guard Choice is eligible, but I'm not sure.

A:
Based on the requirements below you will need to purchase the plan your university is offering to be able to meet their requirements.
