Benefits Handbook

Your marriage is considered a qualified family status change. This means you can change certain before-tax benefits without waiting until the next Annual Enrollment period. In addition, you may be required to make certain changes to your coverage.

The Company reserves the right to ask you for proof of the qualified family status change. Failure to provide such proof within the timeframe specified may result in a loss of coverage and you may be required to pay for any services that you and your family members used while ineligible for coverage.

Note: The benefit plans do not recognize registration of a relationship with a same gender domestic partner under state or local law as a marriage.
