10. Theoretically, but when I checked they said that wasn't incorporated yet

I wouldn't depend on it.

Also, if you do end up with a 35K income in August, they use the full year income (which I don't think they are supposed to do). So there are some bugs to be worked out.

But anyway, at 35K for a whole year you are supposed to be getting minor cost-sharing as well, because you are below 250% of FPL.

The deductible and OOP are doubled for two, but they still should be reduced from the baseline for a couple with an annual income of 35K. That's why I'm pretty sure you got bad info, but you have to understand that the system the workers use isn't designed for estimates, so they can't give you a good estimate. You have to use an outside system to get a good estimate.
