I am changing jobs. My last day with my former employer is on 2/27 and my insurance ends.
My new insurance with me new employer doesn’t start until 6/1. In the interim i will get short term insurance to cover me for any illnesses. There is approximately 93 days between coverages.
Will I have to pay an Obamacare penalty?

Help! Hello, I am switching in between full time jobs, so my insurance from job 1 ended January 31st and my insurance from job 2 starts on May 1st. I counted and that is exactly 90 days without insurance. Will I have to pay a penalty?
