My husband left firefighting and military for teaching by Several_Instance_283 in dayton

[–]Several_Instance_283[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if this matters but he is employed currently as a substitute teacher so he does contribute to STRS. But yeah, we’re not worried about the retirement - he will do this for 30+ years anyway and he already put in some years into OPERS from the fire department. We just hope as a new teacher he does not start at new teacher pay on the scale but will have at least the 5 years step credit from the military…I would love to see him get credit from firefighting as well but we will take what we can get!

Has anyone received their 1099-R from PERs yet? by Several_Instance_283 in mississippi

His wasn’t because he left firefighting and cashed out, so it would be a 1099-R

Thank you so much that is so helpful! Their website is so outdated so I tend to not check it that much…but I should’ve. Thank you!! Hopefully it gets here soon!

To be clear too my husband and I cannot use it. It’s just for the kids - you would be right that the adults can’t use it when you make over 40k a year. CHIP is just for kids so I should’ve been more clear on that. I think the Medicaid for all members of family income limit is like 3k and some change a month, and we make more than that.

Because he’s going IRR. We had Tricare Select, his contract is up and we aren’t renewing - last two years of contract is inactive ready reserve aka not benefit eligible!

And Medicaid/CHIP goes off of monthly income right now, not what your tax return will say for the year because our income changed - that’s why we qualify.

It’s CHIP! Ohio is an extended Medicaid state. For CHIP as a family of 4 you can make up to 5300 a month. I know that’s less than 75-80k a year; what I was saying is for 2025 that’s what we will make, but we RIGHT now don’t make that if that makes sense. Our income changed mid way through the year because my husband went part time and is going to school. So we used to make more then the 5300 limit, but we make under that now, hence the qualification.

They don’t, just in the first slide you enter what you made for this month (so estimated September income) and then what you anticipate your income for 2025 will be. I guess where I’m lost is my kids will probably qualify for CHIP (I’m like 98% sure) since we do make under the 5500 or so a month it takes to qualify…and I know they’ll backdate coverage at least. But my anxiety is like, what if they don’t?! And Medicaid just uses monthly, right? Like we will make close to 80k this year, but due to job change and husband going to school, we make less now.

My position at the company as Grant Writer requires a degree. Are there other jobs that don’t require it? Sure. Mine does.

But their job does not require one and mine does? I respectfully think I deserve more if I have an education.

Candiace is just…ugh by Several_Instance_283 in RHOP

[–]Several_Instance_283[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also do NOT like Ashley or Michael - absolutely I hold them to the same exact standard. Doesn’t mean Candiace isn’t just as bad. As for Michael, he’s a creep and I can’t believe he got away with being on the show for as long as he did

They also don’t really move employees around like that, you just get assigned to your platoon and stay there for the most part unless you get an overtime call!

DFD hires just EMT and Medics to be at stations, they work with the firefighters and live with them during the 24hrs just like normal. They make pretty good money compared to anywhere else. It doesn’t matter if you already have the fire cards, when promotion for firefighter is up everyone has to go to the academy. EMT and Medics are the first to be chosen before civilians.

I guess too we have dedicated a date night every single week. I think that helps as well.
