Can spouse and kids get subsidized coverage?

[Flyboyjohn]

In 2014 my household income is between 100% and 400% FPL

I know that if my employer offers me affordable self-only coverage and offers to cover my dependents and spouse (if I pay the entire additional premium) none of us can get a premium tax credit (subsidy) from the health insurance "marketplace"

But what if my employer does NOT offer to cover my dependents or spouse in 2014 (I know they will be coerced to offer dependent coverage in 2015), can my spouse and kids then get a marketplace subsidy?

I would think so but need reassurance from an expert.

Thanks

The employer is not required to offer coverage to any dependents except children to 26.
