As a solution, Inbound Immigrant was developed to provide a simple program to visitors and immigrants that will provide up to 5 years of protection. This is a brief description of the Inbound Immigrant program. Detailed wording is outlined in the Program Summary, which will be mailed to you after you have enrolled in Inbound Immigrant. eligibility This program is available to non-United States citizens who are traveling to the United States for business, pleasure, to study, or to immigrate.

If you initially purchase at least 3 months, you may continue to renew coverage for a minimum 3 months at a time, at the premium rate in force at the time of renewal.
