I am from Puerto Rico ( a U.S. territory)
I am currently deciding whether to get "emancipated" or not. The reason for my emancipation option is that I'm 20 years old and I have plans of moving out to live on my own by summer. My father is an active duty military with the US air force, therefore I am listed as his dependent and I benefit from health care (TRICARE) and other things. I am not sure if once i get emancipated, I will lose my health care and such. Please answer me as soon as you can, this is very important to me. I know that soon I will have to get my own health care plan, because as soon as I turn 23 I loose my dependent ID... but right now its better for me to stay with the one I have. Another question I have is; Once I get emancipated but still go to college, is there a way to legally get help from my parents until I get my degree?What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
