I’m hoping someone can help me out with figuring this out! I applied for Medicaid when I was unemployed for over a month and they had asked me for more information and letter from my two previous jobs, my previous jobs of course were difficult about this. One’s HR lady was on vacation AGAIN (she goes on a vacation like every month to two months) and the other refused to give me a signed letter and only would give me one with their letterhead on it. So of course my first application was denied. Which I understand but here’s what I don’t understand.

I was finally able to find work but only part time which still makes me qualify for Medicaid in MO. So I reapplied and days later I look at my portal to see its status as withdrawn. I did not ask to withdrawal my application. So I called and of course waited on hold for almost an hour. This was Friday oct 3rd, the gentleman on the phone said that sometimes the website with show withdrawn if I had recently already submitted an application but that he could my application in the system processing. He even found my additional information I submitted and attached it to my case for me and told me he was sending it to the decision team. A few days later I receive another letter asking for all of my paystubs from the new job I had found. I was only there for a little while so I only had the two paystubs I gave them. I call again that next Tuesday after receiving the letter and get a lady on the phone. I explain everything and she says she’s able to see my case and that everything is there and that I qualify for approval and that she’s going to send my case off for approval… the guy on Friday already said he did that but whatever. Then she says i might get an answer by the end of the week. Of course over the weekend I get a letter stating my application was rejected due to the fact they received a request to cancel my application. I did not cancel it! That’s the whole reason I called originally! So I tried to call because it says to call if I think they made a mistake and of course they’re not open due to the holiday today. I am just not sure what to do here I am fuming. Any advice on what to do would be greatly appreciated.
