Marketplace health coverage and financial assistance are based on information about your household and circumstances. When that information changes, updating your application can help keep your coverage accurate.
Changes to report
Depending on the Marketplace rules, relevant changes can include household income, marriage or divorce, a birth or adoption, a move, or gaining access to other qualifying coverage.
Why updates matter
A change may affect plan availability, eligibility for financial assistance, or the amount of advance premium tax credit you receive. Incorrect estimates can create problems when you reconcile your assistance on a tax return.
How to update your application
Sign in to your official Marketplace account and follow the instructions for reporting a change. Review any updated eligibility notice and take the required next steps.
Keep records
Save confirmation numbers, notices, income estimates, and documents related to the change. If you are unsure how to report a situation, contact the Marketplace or a qualified assister.
