  1. [quote user="Boiling a frog"] Slightly puzzled If husband is over 65 he presumably has a UK old age pension,if so he is entitled to an E121 which then means he is entitled to register with CPAM for health care If he is not in receipt of a uk old age pension then he is not entitled to an E121 therefore not entitled at the moment the way the rules stand to health care via CMU If entitled to an E121 then wife is covered [/quote] Sorry, there was a misunderstanding; my friend does indeed have an E121 (phew!) [8-)] Another interesting scenario: friends of ours (inactifs, less than five years residency) are in the health system, having healthcare costs refunded by CPAM, and top-up insurance, yet have never been invited to join the CMU and have never been asked for any social contributions. They'd never heard of CMU or URSSAF until all this blew up.
  2. Thanks Cooperlola, but there's no E121 involved. The husband is over 65; they've lived here four years.  Presumeably, he can continue with CMU, as he's reached the legal UK retirement age, but does that automatically mean that his wife,who is under 60, will still be able to receive health-related refunds as his dependent?
  3. [quote user="cooperlola"]It isn't an amount, but a length of time.  60 hours per month, if memory serves.  Or register a business, and pay full cotisations.[/quote] That's an interesting thought! I wonder how the cost of paying full cotisations would compare with paying for private insurance for two people? I had jokingly said to my O/H What about registering as a B&B but not exactly advertising our services? [Www] We've received two letters, one telling us we cannot renew with CMU but that we can remain with CMU until Mar 31st 2008 but to get ourselves along to our CPAM office toute de suite... also included in the same envelope was a letter saying our renewal aplication had been accepted and is valid until Mar 31st 2008, and also stating how much our new (higher) contributions will be. Does the inclusion of the second letter mean we don't have to make the 50-mile round trip, or should we go anyway? Also, does anyone know whether, after Mar 31st, the "inactif" female spouse (under 60) of a retiree (over 65) will still be included as a beneficiary and be entitled to the same healthcare under his CMU application?
