I was approved for regular medicaid within 30 days (I want to say it was like, 2 weeks, but that was prepandemic) because I'd quit my previous dayjob and I was going self employed. My income from the self employment the previous year had only been ~7k because it was alongside my dayjob, and so limited what time and energy I could devote to it. Since I left the dayjob, they didn't count what I made there towards my income anymore. And then I was able to get the form by calling the medicaid customer service line, had my GP do it, and sent that in.

I'd highly recommend if you aren't sure, try calling the PA benefits center once you've moved. They can do the application for you/check if there's other benefits you can be eligible for while you're at it.
