If you plan to elect coverage for your eligible dependents, you will need to include electronic (scanned) documentation of each dependent’s eligibility status at the time of enrollment. For dependents who have social security numbers, you will need to include their social security numbers on their election form.

Qualified dependents generally include:

• Your legally married spouse or civil union partner.
• Your children, including stepchildren and adopted children, up to age 26 for medical and age 19 for dental (disabled children may be covered beyond age 26).
• Children for whom you are legal guardian up to age 18, unless proof of continued dependency is provided (allowing coverage up to age 26 for medical and 19 for dental).
