然后,来美国探亲的父母就算是 Exemptions from the payment。还是上面第二个链接。
但是,这里还有不是百分百清楚的地方。比如,可以买医保的人里(第一个链接)有这么一条: Individual with Non-immigrant Status (includes worker visas, student visas, and citizens of Micronesia, the Marshall Islands, and Palau)。来探亲的父母应该不算在这里面。那,J visa 不是worker或学生吧?J 的家属呢?也都不是吧?
是NATIONAL IMMIGRATION LAW CENTER 根据一些法案及补充说明做出的解释,列出了所有可能的“Lawfully present immigrants”以及这么列的法律来源。中间有这么一段:
Persons with Valid Nonimmigrant Status Nonimmigrant Visa Holders
Nonimmigrant visa holders include tourists, students, and visitors on business, as well as individuals who are permitted to live and work in the U.S. indefinitely. Nonimmigrants may have a status granted under 8 U.S.C. section 1101(a)(15)(A) through (V) or by a treaty such as the one described below. Some categories of nonimmigrant statuses allow the status holder to work and eventually to adjust to lawful permanent residence. Nonimmigrants who violate the terms of their status — for example, by overstaying a tourist visa or working without permission — may lose their nonimmigrant status and be considered undocumented. Nonimmigrants who have not violated the terms of their status are considered “lawfully present.”
通过exchange申请保险的资格在45 CFR 155.305http://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/45/155.305 (a) Eligibility for enrollment in a QHP through the Exchange. The Exchange must determine an applicant eligible for enrollment in a QHP through the Exchange if he or she meets the following requirements: (1) Citizenship, status as a national, or lawful presence. Is a citizen or national of the United States, or is a non-citizen who is lawfully present in the United States, and is reasonably expected to be a citizen, national, or a non-citizen who is lawfully present for the entire period for which enrollment is sought;
45 CFR 152.2http://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/45/152.2 Lawfully present means ... (2) An alien in nonimmigrant status who has not violated the terms of the status under which he or she was admitted or to which he or she has changed after admission;
这里包括所有非移民身份。没有特别包括或不包括某个身份。
但是更有意思的是要通过exchange买保险,不单止要是lawfully present,还要“is reasonably expected to be a citizen, national, or a non-citizen who is lawfully present for the entire period for which enrollment is sought”。
你们有些人可能会说,这句话的意思就是你整年都要是lawfully present。但是公布这个规定的时候的解释说不是这样的。https://www.federalregister.gov/articles/2012/03/27/2012-6125/patient- protection-and-affordable-care-act-establishment-of-exchanges-and-qualified-health-plans#p-586 Response: The final rule maintains the “reasonably expected” standard in accordance with section 1312(f)(3) of the Affordable Care Act. We do not interpret this provision to mean that an applicant must be lawfully present for an entire coverage year; rather, we anticipate that the verification process will address whether an applicant's lawful presence is time-limited, and if so, the Exchange will determine his or her eligibility for the period of time for which his or her lawful presence has been verified. We anticipate providing future guidance on this topic, with a focus on minimizing administrative complexity and burden.

LAWFUL TEMPORARY RESIDENT (LTR): Under the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) of 1986, certain undocumented non-citizens were allowed to legalize their status, first to Lawful Temporary Resident (LTR), and then to Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR). There is no current provision to allow undocumented non-citizens to apply for legalization to LTR. A small number of LTRs were unable to adjust to LPR, mostly because of the English language and civics testing requirements.

来探亲的父母,如果不是美国公民或绿卡,又不在下面这个单子上,
那就不算是 lawfully present in the U.S. (这里只讲医保):https://www.healthcare.gov/immigrants/immigration-status/
然后,美国买医保的强制要求就不适用于来美国探亲的父母,看这里:https://www.healthcare.gov/fees-exemptions/exemptions-from-the-fee/
然后,来美国探亲的父母就算是 Exemptions from the payment。还是上面第二个链接。
但是,这里还有不是百分百清楚的地方。比如,可以买医保的人里(第一个链接)有这么一条:
Individual with Non-immigrant Status (includes worker visas, student visas, and citizens of Micronesia, the Marshall Islands, and Palau)。来探亲的父母应该不算在这里面。那,J visa 不是worker或学生吧?J 的家属呢?也都不是吧?
然后,这一页还有一条,Lawful Temporary Resident,不知道说的是什么人。
最后,上面的情况都是基于父母来探亲,不算是税务居民,美国政府不期待他们在美国看病,购买美国医保,什么的。但是,你如果把他们算作税务居民,claim dependent
,上面说的医保之例外,还适用吗?
今天的法律也许还有这个漏洞。这个漏洞明天也许就会堵上。即使不堵上,万一真被查了,你也不是说就百分百会赢。现在,只能说,个人好自为之。

是NATIONAL IMMIGRATION LAW CENTER 根据一些法案及补充说明做出的解释,列出了所有可能的“Lawfully present immigrants”以及这么列的法律来源。中间有这么一段:
Persons with Valid Nonimmigrant Status
Nonimmigrant Visa Holders
Nonimmigrant visa holders include tourists, students, and visitors on
business, as well as individuals who are permitted to live and work in the U.S. indefinitely. Nonimmigrants may have a status granted under 8 U.S.C.
section 1101(a)(15)(A) through (V) or by a treaty such as the one described below. Some categories of nonimmigrant statuses allow the status holder to
work and eventually to adjust to lawful permanent residence. Nonimmigrants
who violate the terms of their status — for example, by overstaying a
tourist visa or working without permission — may lose their nonimmigrant
status and be considered undocumented. Nonimmigrants who have not violated
the terms of their status are considered “lawfully present.”
你可以仔细读读这么列的来源。如果你认为这些专业的law firm做出的法律解释也不算数的话我就无话可说了。

通过exchange申请保险的资格在45 CFR 155.305http://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/45/155.305
(a) Eligibility for enrollment in a QHP through the Exchange. The Exchange
must determine an applicant eligible for enrollment in a QHP through the
Exchange if he or she meets the following requirements:
(1) Citizenship, status as a national, or lawful presence. Is a citizen or
national of the United States, or is a non-citizen who is lawfully present
in the United States, and is reasonably expected to be a citizen, national, or a non-citizen who is lawfully present for the entire period for which
enrollment is sought;
这里的lawfully present是定义在45 CFR 155.20http://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/45/155.20
Lawfully present has the meaning given the term in § 152.2.
45 CFR 152.2http://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/45/152.2
Lawfully present means
...
(2) An alien in nonimmigrant status who has not violated the terms of the
status under which he or she was admitted or to which he or she has changed after admission;
这里包括所有非移民身份。没有特别包括或不包括某个身份。
但是更有意思的是要通过exchange买保险,不单止要是lawfully present,还要“is
reasonably expected to be a citizen, national, or a non-citizen who is
lawfully present for the entire period for which enrollment is sought”。
这句话是什么意思呢?如果我是B2身份,我seek enrollment for我的逗留期,那就应
该符合这个条件。
你们有些人可能会说,这句话的意思就是你整年都要是lawfully present。但是公布这个规定的时候的解释说不是这样的。https://www.federalregister.gov/articles/2012/03/27/2012-6125/patient-
protection-and-affordable-care-act-establishment-of-exchanges-and-qualified-health-plans#p-586
Response: The final rule maintains the “reasonably expected” standard in
accordance with section 1312(f)(3) of the Affordable Care Act. We do not
interpret this provision to mean that an applicant must be lawfully present for an entire coverage year; rather, we anticipate that the verification
process will address whether an applicant's lawful presence is time-limited, and if so, the Exchange will determine his or her eligibility for the
period of time for which his or her lawful presence has been verified. We
anticipate providing future guidance on this topic, with a focus on
minimizing administrative complexity and burden.
这个很明确地说,这个条款不是要求整年都要是lawfully present。这个条款实际上是什么意思就不是解释的很清楚。好像说如果一个人的逗留期是有限的,他们只会考虑逗留期这段时间合不合资格。(但是这个不是像没说一样吗?)我没有找到任何关于这个的future guidance。
Future guidance?

LAWFUL TEMPORARY RESIDENT (LTR):
Under the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) of 1986, certain
undocumented non-citizens were allowed to legalize their status, first to
Lawful Temporary Resident (LTR), and then to Lawful Permanent Resident (LPR). There is no current provision to allow undocumented non-citizens to apply for legalization to LTR. A small number of LTRs were unable to adjust to LPR, mostly because of the English language and civics testing requirements.

美国税法算,这不consistent,不是自欺欺人吗
【 在 czy77 (卡卡猫) 的大作中提到: 】
: bona fide residence没规定父母过去一年都在中国居住啊。中国税法不是这么规定
的。
To meet the bona fide residence test, you must reside in a foreign country or countries for an uninterrupted period that includes an entire tax year.
An entire tax year is from January 1 through December 31 for taxpayers who
file their income tax returns on a calendar year basis.
During the period of bona fide residence in a foreign country, you can
leave the country for brief or temporary trips back to the United States or elsewhere for vacation or business. To keep your status as a bona fide
resident of a foreign country, you must have a clear intention of returning from such trips, without unreasonable delay, to your foreign residence or to a new bona fide residence in another foreign country.
上面写如果meet the bona fide residence test,只要是固定居住在别国,中间到美
国或者其他国家旅行一段时间也是没关系的,只要有明确的意愿回国,没有不合理的延迟回国,都是属于该国的bona fide residence
这样就明确规定了B2是中国的bona fide residence,只要B2在规定的时间内回中国就
行了。
好像这样的规定不适合拿了绿卡的父母,拿了绿卡就得买保险了。
所以父母到这里通过了183天的TEST的,都勇敢的报吧,这明显是合理合法的!
记得附上8965表
在PART II 都填NO
PART III 填父母姓名 ITIN 号 Exemption Type 填C 然后后面所以的月份都打X(
turbo tax 给我这样填的,不知道为什么没在FULL YEAR那里打X)
bona fide residence 是美国税法的概念,和中国税法没关系。

我的理解是只有税务resident才能作为dependent,而税务resident就要有符合要求的
医保或者符合exempts。如果符合resident of foreign country那就不符合dependent
的要求也就不能clamin 成dependent。
exempt里的bona fide residence应该是供nonresident报税用的而不是给claim是
resident但又又要以nonresident要求exempt的。
说得很好。
resident/nonresident的税务身份,在不同判断标准下,也许两者都说的通。但是在同一个税表里,此税务身份应当需要前后一致。
至于选哪个更有利,可以根据自己的实际情况来判断。

这个帖子,从一楼开始的前提就是,
来探亲的家属,符合美国税务居民的条件,可以申报成 dependent。
然后今年出来了这个医保罚款。
然后来探亲的 dependent,是一定要交罚款呢,还是符合某种 exemption 从而不用交罚款。
在税法上,有可能同时是两个国家的税务居民。

1。这个问题是什么意思?
"about what was listed in non resident alien"
如果是税法上的 nonresident,那就不能使 dependent 了?就是不明白这个电话的 flow 是个什么过程,接电话的人真的明白了你的问题。
2。打电话确认的方法应该鼓励。但绝不是说就是最终答案。这些政府机构这些接电话的人,大多数和一般公司的客服没有任何区别。他们都是拿着几页指南,回答你的问题。这么多受过高等教育的聪明的华人朋友都没有搞清楚,一个可能的原因是法律确实还不清楚,一个可能的原因是我们还没看到足够的全部的法律。
