I'm insured through K's work. I tried to do Kaiser at one point but was rejected on the basis of answer than at some point in the past 2 years I had run a fever. Based on that feedback they didn't want to insure a male in his 30's. With all the new laws they probably can't be quite that choosy any longer.
Ah, the pitter patter of tiny feet in huge combat boots. Shut up!

I went with Kaiser through an agent, who knew how to fill out the forms to not raise red flags. They wouldn't insure me now, of course. They've lost money on me, but they're pretty good at not cancelling people.

Thank you for the feedback. I've had Blue Cross and Kaiser both (employee plans) in the past and each had its pros and cons. I'll check into each for individual.

Assuming the Supremes dont screw us, an individual plan under Federal law can refuse you on a number of basises until 2014. Group plans, if you qualify for the group can't turn you down. There may be State law, that gives you more acess - in CA probably is.
[eidt] there are other ways group plans can screw people with pre-existing conditions.

Tax question (and I am heading out in a few minutes, so I'll be back later in the evening):
Okay, I'm filling out my Schedule C form for my business. Now it says to file it with my 1040; D and I are, of course, filing our personal taxes jointly in the 1040 Long Form.
Does the Schedule C just get added to this personal 1040 form...or is there some other form I need to fill out besides the Schedule C for this annual filing for the 2011 year? I DID send in my Quarter 3 1099 and payment, but NOT my Q4?
(X-post with Natter: feel free to comment on board or e-me at profile addy.)
Any thoughts/help much appreciated!

Trust my rage
I think you just include the Schedule C with the rest of your filing. But some of the numbers (maybe just the last one) of the Schedule C will end up on your 1040. (Obviously I don't prepare my own taxes.)

Erin, when I was self-employed, my Schedule C income was just filed as part of our joint 1040. Make sure you take any adjustments, deductions, etc. to your AGI.

DH backs up Dana's advice, Erin. That's how he does our taxes.
