  1. Yes, he was an hourly employee. I'm aware everyone is required to apply for Medicare when they are 65. I'm not as I stated above I'm 43. Our issue is Medicare payment is based on income of household. Since I'm considered a dependent my parents' income counts against me. The little bit I could get from SSD would not be enough to cover the cost of paying the monthly premium.
  2. I'm one of those who is physically disabled and have been on my dad's insurance (he's retired) after I turned 26. I am 43 now. They are wanting me and I assume others to try and get disability, but then I would have to pay for Medicare. I'd go in the hole having to pay based on my parent's income. My argument as the benefit highlights for 2024 say no contribution payment for health insurance. Why would I want to start paying for Medicare when it's not going to cost a thing in 2024 for retirees??
  3. Update: We received our enrollment confirmation papers in the mail. We are still only paying $34 a month for family.
  4. So how are we supposed to know what we are going to pay in 2020?? We called and picked one of the two plans listed on the website, but are not sure what it will be costing us.
  5. The 2020 Benefits Highlights say one cost, but when you go to reenroll on the website, it says totally different and much higher costs. It's very confusing.
  6. My dad seems to think the paycheck will be for 52 hours every week. So there is overtime??
  7. No matter how/when you get the money it will be taxed!
  8. I've heard two things, one, Ford employees must transfer to a Ford plant. The other is $38 miilion dollars from Ford to be given to the Sandusky plant for maintenance. So who knows. Just don't count on staying in Ohio if you are a Ford employee at the plant. Walton Hills is closing and an article that I read said that noone will be able to stay in Ohio from that plant. They will have to go out of state for a job at another plant.
  9. There was a supply issue wirh parts. Reason why the Cruze is out selling the Focus and a few other cars.
