Yes, citizenship and immigration status requirements for Family Health Plus are the same as those under the Medicaid program. Immigrants in many categories, including lawfully admitted permanent residents (green card holders) and persons permanently residing in the United States under color of law (PRUCOL), are eligible to join Family Health Plus if they meet all other Family Health Plus requirements. In addition, those otherwise eligible qualified aliens who entered the United States on or after August 22, 1996 may also qualify for Family Health Plus benefits. Please contact your local county department of social services for further clarification.
