Depends on how many employees the employer has. COBRA applies only to 20 or more in the last year.
No. Call your States Department of Insurance.
Your employer has absolutely no right to submit your social security number anywhere to anyone without your permission.
Can a employer take money out ur wages apart from tax and national insurance without ure consent
yes they can
AnswerCan they? Yes. Should they? No.
If such a scenario arises, the employer should be procecuted under the existing law of the land. A case has to be registered by the employees against the unscrupulous employer for cheating.
Yes, there are several different circumstances where this could happen. If the employer has discontinued the plan entirely, then there is no COBRA coverage to be offered. If the company has fewer than 20 employees, the plan does not have to offer COBRA coverage. If the company is a church, it is not required to offer COBRA. Last, if you were fired from the job for gross misconduct, the employer does not have to offer you COBRA coverage.

Try your state's insurance program for lowpaid workers...visit local public clinics...buy into your employer or school's insurance program. It is worth it.
Insurance companies generally can cancel a policy for any reason they deem fit, however, they are generally required to give 30 days notice before doing so.
Yes, in certain situations. For example, 1) If you are no longer considered an "Eligible Employee" - (ie. you no longer work enough hours to be considered full-time); 2) If your employer discontinues the plan for all employee's. Note: Any involuntary loss of coverage may be a COBRA or HIPAA event.
No, it is not illegal. If it is a group plan (through an employer), the employee could submit the enrollment change without the spouse's signature. The employer or insurer would not question it, since he or she is still married to the person. The spouse would know that he or she had been dropped when a COBRA notice arrives, assuming the employer offers COBRA coverage.
