If you’re enrolled in a Marketplace plan and your income or household changes, update your application as soon as possible.
These changes — like higher or lower income, adding or losing household members, or getting offers of other health coverage — may affect the coverage or savings you’re eligible for. After you finish applying or enrolling, you may be asked to submit documents to confirm your income.
Why it’s important to update your application right away
If your income estimate goes up or you lose a household member — You may qualify for less savings than you’re getting now. If you don’t report the change, you could have to pay money back when you file your federal tax return.
If your income estimate goes down or you gain a household member — You could qualify for:
- More savings than you’re getting now. This could lower your monthly premiums
- Free or low-cost coverage through Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP)
