COBRA Subsidy Not Extended - For Now

6/22/2010

As of June 22, 2010, the COBRA subsidy has not been extended beyond May 31, 2010. Individuals who are involuntary terminated June 1, 2010 or later are not eligible to receive the subsidy. Sen. Robert Casey (D-PA) offered an amendment (S. Amt. 4371) to a stripped down version of a Senate tax-extender bill that would extend the COBRA premium subsidy program through November 2010. At this point it is unclear if the bill and its amendments will pass.
