Did you hit the little person icon in top right corner, when you came back in? Seems thats what I've had to do.

You might want to revisit that if you can keep your MAGI below 200% FPL. When I looked at the plans available to me, it was a no-brainer to go with a silver plan with the reduced copays, etc. available at 196% FPL compared to a bronze plan.
The other day I made another account using a different email. I can get to that profile but cannot get to the section to put any info into an application. I get a blank page or the page to login, even when I'm already logged in.
Good to know the folks in charge of the system are communicating effectively and everything is working smoothly.
I may be in, I received the eligibility PDF, except that it said that there was editable contents. Didn't say I will be eligible, but my application was under the 400 pl, table shown and I couldn't find any form to edit. Said someone will be in touch, waiting.

Use this page to find plans and costs (without your subsidy) for your state and county. You don't need to have an application or account at HealthCare.gov to use this. I found it was about the same information as we had posted here from LegalConsumer.com.
I hope this is a sign of progress. Baby steps.

I really want the ACA website and ACA to be successful. But the website is a total mess in my opinion. I used to be a computer programmer and helped create several online systems. Have they not heard of testing? The ACA website appears to not even be tested. It's improving a little each day but still doesn't work. I've had to re-enter some of the same personal information several times...that is if I can even get to those entry screens in the first place. Right now I'm stuck with the identity verification having failed and it seems to stop me from doing anything else. I called Experian last week to verify my identity and now that verification seems to be lost. Today I uploaded my drivers license for the identity verification and I'm still waiting for any response from that. Does anyone know if they actually look at the uploaded data for identity verification?
Note if you just want to see the plans available i.e. windowshop, ehealthinsurance.com also provides a way to do it. (This does not cover subsidies) You don't even need to give your name for this one.

As I previously mentioned, I seem to have made it to the first stage of enrollment. This happens after the application is accepted. Then a plan is selected and reviewed. At that point, the plan selection step becomes grayed out and says locked. A notice says Congratulations. But it has almost no other information and the enrollment still shows in process. I believe that is because an enrollment is not complete until the first payment has been made.
After a few follow-up calls, now a week later, the insurance company stated they will not be accepting payments for Marketplace plans until November 1. Also my information does not show up at the insurance company as of yet. I should be receiving something in the mail in the next few weeks. This could differ based on insurance companies and states. But it appears if you make it through the application and enrollment process gauntlet, there may be yet another delay due to the insurance companies not being ready. This is probably a consequence of the exchanges themselves not being ready on time.
This also leads me to believe that there are currently zero completed Marketplace enrollments with the largest insurer in my state. Nor will there be until next month at the earliest according to the information given. The reason being that the training materials state that the first payment must be received to complete an enrollment. Applications come before the enrollment process. Once you have a completed application on the Marketplace then you can select a plan. That is starting the Enrollment process. And not all applications or enrollments are completed. So you may hear about thousands of applications, but if used literally that's the phase before enrollment. Enrollment is where you pick the plan, then wait for the insurance company and make the first payment.
ehealth may work depending where you are. For me they have none of the exchange plans listed, they don't even display the only carrier offering plans. I used the kaiser calculator for cost guess, use the spreadsheet that was posted earlier to identify the carrier(s) offering plans on my exchange and then go their website to get plan info. Even then it's not certain as the plan info looks more generic but it least has a brochure and benefit summary.
Since I only have one carrier ( which I never heard of ) I guess comparing won't be that hard.
Agreed. These kinds of errors, like getting data from another user showing up on your screen, your own info disappearing, and getting the wrong screen popping up are exactly the kind of errors you get at the very beginning of unit testing, integration testing, etc.
No one could possibly have actually designed a system like this!
When I go to ehealthinsurance.com to see if they will list plans, I get 0. This is a nightmare, how the heck can I even pick a plan without any info? What a mess. Anybody in Florida have better luck?
