Expanded visa eligibility for CareMatters ® LTC Solutions
Effective immediately, Nationwide has expanded citizenship and residency criteria for our suite of CareMatters ® long-term care (LTC) solutions. Eligibility now includes the 3 following visa classifications:
- EB-5 (Employment-Based Fifth Preference Immigrant Investor Visa) for foreign nationals who invest in a qualified U.S. commercial enterprise
- H-1B (Nonimmigrant Visa for Specialty Occupations) for foreign professionals with specialized skills (e.g., engineers, IT experts, scientists)
- H-4 (Nonimmigrant Dependent Visa) for spouses and unmarried children (under age 21) of H-category visa holders
Applicants under these visa types must also meet the following criteria:
- Minimum U.S. residency of 3 years
- Established history of medical care in the U.S., sufficient to support the simplified underwriting for CareMatters
We’re committed to broadening access to LTC coverage while maintaining underwriting integrity. Contact Nationwide if you have questions or would like to discuss how this update may benefit more of your clients.
