Insurance Questions and Answers

Which is best Estrella insurance or no-fault insurance?




Answers: That's like saying, what's best, horses or dvd's?

Estrella is the name of an agency, I'm assuming. No fault describes a type of insurance coverage, OR the tort liability, in a particular state. What it means, exactly, depends on which state you are in.

So the two are completely not comparable. You can't compare horses and dvd's.

How do rules of an HSA apply if I get married in arrears contained by the year?

With a Health Savings Account (HSA), under majority circumstances, I understand that I can label a qualified withdrawal at any time, within the year of the qualified expense or in subsequent years. Also I can make a contribution to my HSA for the previous year up until April 15. My request for information is how these rules apply since I got married behind last year within November and added my wife to my insurance then. Can I immediately make withdrawal based on medical expenses she have prior to our marriage? I know for tax-filing purposes, it is one and only my marriage status on the closing day of the year that determines whether I report single or married. Anyone have information on this? In June, I salaried $2,000 in medical expenses for my wife (fiance at the time). I'd approaching to know if I can now gross a withdrawal from my HSA for that $2,000. I look forward to your answers!


Answers: It is my apprehension that you cannot use an HSA for medical expenses occuring prior to being eligible for the insurance. Here is the website for the IRS publication: http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p969.pdf and also you'll want to consult a duty professional.
Greetings,

That is an interesting question. From what I get the message, it's a twist of outside influence getting married in November. I'm going to assume that your hot wife (congratulations BTW) got onto your HSA qualified plan and you salaried the premium for the month of December.

That being the covering, then you enjoy until April (tax day - the 15th I think) to contribute the total amount allowable for the 2007 year. For the both of you, that is to say $5,650. It's raising for 2008 to $5,800.

But, paying the 2K for her medical that be accrued in the past she was on a HSA qualified insurance plan will not qualify. Think of it this means of access: If she had payed 2k out of pocket from some type of medical issue and next a month later bought medical insurance, the medical insurance would not pay cheque for the 2k either.

But, look at the bright side, you can breed back payments until levy day. Also, hold on to all of the medical receipts for tariff purpose. It is possible that she might get to cut back on some of the taxes that you guys pay because of the 2k. Check beside a tax being.

Hope that helps.

P.S. Good luck on the HSA stuff. It seem like a great route to plan for the future.

Lots of website will compare prices for you. The more important issue is whether you think the insurance company that you buy from will be around a long time. If so, then go with the cheapest rate.

And no rate will be cheaper than term life. Since you a smoker you will have to go for the cheaper option since rates can be 4 to 5 times higher than a non-smoker.

And if you do quit smoking one day, check with your insurance company. Many offer the lower rates after you stay clean for 6-12 months!
