Done for Now w/Federal Health Insurance Marketplace B.S.
I'd hoped to feel accomplished this afternoon, but instead feel aggravated. Rather than feeling satisfied with myself for finally getting off my duff to do the final thing, I'm massively annoyed as it appears that the thing didn't need doing after all, which I don't really believe in my bones. I still feel like the other shoe may drop at any moment, likely when traveling to the Bay Area for Mom's 80th birthday shindig next month. Guess I'll travel w/my laptop, just in case. *DEEP SIGH*
I went online today to take care of something that'd been weighing on me, only to find that the link to upload the required documents didn't work. While trying to figure out where else to find a link that would work, I vaguely remembered one spot where it might exist. I wandered over there, and, I've since learned, in the process to find out where/how to upload the documents, wiped out all the previous application data and resubmitted it as new.
At least I've been assured by two folks on the phone since then that I've done all I need to do for now, despite an apparently automated email saying "FURTHER ACTION REQUIRED" which led me to call the second time and get told that really, no further action is required. So, I've still got the additional docs previously requested by them ready to upload, even though there's no way to do so and, at the moment anyway, apparently no need to do so. Perhaps they actually reviewed the first set of documents I uploaded weeks ago - right after they requested them - and that was sufficient after all, despite a lengthy phone conversation after that telling me what more I needed to submit. It took some time this time around to gather up, scan, and shift to the laptop, and for whatever reason I'd put off uploading until today.
Even though I double-checked today and was assured that there's no deadline for submitting any documents because they don't need any submitted, I'm not sure I believe it, based on previous experience. I still plan to check back in early August, about a week before the previous deadline they gave me on an earlier go round on this project.
Hair-tearingly maddening. Last time I submitted the required documents right away, but it seemed as if they didn't pay attention to them. Various documents/notifications clearly say not to resubmit documents already submitted, so I haven't. All I have now is the new set of documents they'd said were required, but apparently really weren't, but may be again, someday, eventually. Or not...
