Let's say that fictional couple estimated their income a bit low for next year, and got that better plan you mention. They would then have to pay back a small subsidy amount at tax time, but would still have had the benefit of the better CSR subsidy silver plan you mention. CSR subsidies do not have to be paid back. But you didn't hear that from me <ggg>..

OT - not something they could do as income is two SS payments and a small pension. I fooled around this morning and see if they drop from $34,000 to $30,000 they would get $28 more help. Wonder if their is a place to get this info for each state? Appears in Pa. the magic number this year is $64,960. ( almost positive it was $68,000 last year ) Here is the gold plan we can get free if you estimate income at $1 more at $64,961: Geisinger Health Plan · Geisinger Marketplace HMO 20/40/3000GoldHMOPlan ID: 22444PA0010037 Estimated monthly premium $2,980.28 Deductible $6,000Family Total Out-of-pocket maximum $14,700Family Total
