Marketplace的保险不算means-tested program. 只要有符合marketplace要求的合法身份(绿卡是其中之一),都可以享受marketplace的医疗补贴,不会有任何不良影响。美国政府不会找你麻烦,也不会影响以后申请绿卡或者入籍。
USCIS明确说public charge只包括以下范围:"Public charge adjudications would only account for receipt of designated public benefits, including cash assistance for income maintenance, Medicaid (with limited exceptions for Medicaid benefits paid for an “emergency medical condition,” and for certain disability services related to education), Medicare Part D Low Income Subsidy, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, or food stamps), any benefit provided for institutionalization for long-term care at government expense, Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program, Section 8 Project-Based Rental Assistance, and Public Housing. "
