[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think this is a class or cultural thing. Our nanny is not originally from here and became a US citizen not long ago. She is super great at navigating this kind of stuff. [/quote] +1 Mine too. She signed up for Obamacare on her own. I never had to help her with that. Occasionally, I give advice when she gets back medical tests from a family members and doesn't know what type of specialist to call, but the Obamacare stuff was designed to be sort of user friendly.[/quote] Op here. That’s great, but it takes many years in the US (usually) to become a citizen. She’s only been here 3 years and still speaks virtually zero English. She’s not really up to speed yet. I get not every single recent immigrant will have these struggles, but I do think these struggles are the result of her being a recent immigrant. Her mother brought her here and nobody in her family or extended family has a ton of money or education.[/quote]
