My parents still provide my health insurance at no additional cost to them; will this affect my independence?

Being carried on the parents' health insurance will not, of itself, be the cause for denial of residency. However, it will bring your residency into question. The provision of insurance is considered a form of support. While it is not direct monetary support, the savings realized by you can be significant. Additionally, most insurance policies will only allow parents to carry dependents on their insurance if they are full time students. ABOR policy requires that a petitioner overcome the presumption they are in Arizona merely as students.
