My Mother in Law, Here in the US on a Tourist Visa, has been Admitted to the Hospital, Are We Liable for her Medical Bills?
My mother-in-law is visiting from Ghana. She is in the U.S. on a tourist visa. She has no medical insurance. We were told by my brother-in-law and her that she was in good health. She has been admitted to a local hospital with pneumonia and a salmonella infection. Are we legally liable for her medical bills? Recently, my home was robbed. The police agree that it was an inside job. However, they are being overly cautious confronting this individual because, they claim, that she has rights, even though she is an illegal. My question is: Do I have the right to report her to the INS and do I have the right to report the agency to the INS so that they will prevent the agency from further hiring illegals? I am an immigrant, and unmarried. The father of my child and child-to-be is violent. Can I qualify for immigration help under the Domestic Violence act even though we were never married?
