Can my fiancé get Medi-cal without issues?
My fiance and I recently traveled around Asia arrived to the US just over a week ago under a K-1 Visa. We're schedule to get married soon. We found out that she's pregnant the day after arriving. We are in California, and I'm halfway through nursing school, an I'll be resuming in a few weeks, thus I'm not working at the moment to get work covered health insurance.
I've narrowed it down to two options; go back to my old job at Kaiser Permanente and work part-time for the employee based health insurance, but that will risk my already busy nursing school and clinical rotation schedule. Secondly, I would prefer to apply for Medi-cal for my fiancé. She doesn't have a SSN yet, it's being mailed in 2 weeks. Would anybody contest or see any issues with my fiancé having a K-1 visa and getting Medi-cal? Would it affect her Green Card application status? If anybody have advice or opinions on this, please feel free to input. Thanks
