From the healthcare website:
The penalty in 2014 and beyond
The penalty in 2014 is calculated one of 2 ways. You’ll pay whichever of these amounts is higher:
1% of your yearly household income. The maximum penalty is the national average yearly premium for a bronze plan.
$95 per person for the year ($47.50 per child under 18). The maximum penalty per family using this method is $285.
The fee increases every year. In 2015 it’s 2% of income or $325 per person. In 2016 and later years it’s 2.5% of income or $695 per person. After that it is adjusted for inflation.
If you’re uninsured for just part of the year, 1/12 of the yearly penalty applies to each month you’re uninsured. If you’re uninsured for less than 3 months, you don’t have a make a payment.
So it's probably better to go ahead and sign up for it ASAP. The premiums are pretty cheap.
I fortunately get my insurance through my boyfriends job. It's like 200 a month for both of us, which ain't bad at all. Though when you don't make much money it always seems like a lot, doesn't it? lol
I sure as heck hope so!! People always want pictures. So I figure that's good. My boyfriend is going to go back to school soonish. For engineering hopefully. He's having a hard time deciding, but I'm pretty sure that's what he's going to do.
What do you want to do? (sorry if I've already asked, terrible memory)
