Dear Seniors,
Greetings!
1. I am going to apply for Medical Health Insurance cards for my family tomorrow. Reading through their website, I am a bit confused about the following requirement for the same (also a part of the Health Insurance application form):
"Committed to being physically present in Alberta for at least 183 days in a 12 month period"
(Ref: http://www.health.alberta.ca/AHCIP/registration-requirements.html)
We will be in Alberta for around a month or so, then will leave. We intend to come back after a year to permanently settle in Canada. In these circumstances and keeping in view the aforementioned statement/requirement, am I still eligible to apply for the medical insurance for me and my family?
2. Secondly, is it a must to open a bank account and take the bank account statement as my residency proof as I will be temporarily staying here?
Thanks and Best Regards,
