Marriage/Domestic Partnership
Update your Medical and Dental Plans
Use Workday to enroll newly acquired dependents* (e.g. new marriage/domestic partnership) within 60 days of becoming eligible. This is also used to update name and address changes, and to terminate coverage for dependents who are no longer eligible. View the Dependent Eligibility Worksheet for more information.
* You must also submit valid dependent verification documents in order to add new dependents to your medical and/or dental plan.
Update your Flexible Spending Arrangement/Dependent Care Assistance Program
A new marriage or domestic partnership may necessitate enrollment in a Flexible Spending Arrangement (FSA) or Dependent Care Assistance Program (DCAP) account. These options are included in your Change Benefits event enrollment in Workday. The requested change must correspond to the event that creates the special open enrollment and changes are effective the first of the month following approval of the change from Navia Benefit Solutions.
Update your Health Savings Account
Although Health Savings Account (HSA) contributions may be changed at any time, adding a spouse to your medical plan may increase your annual contribution limit. If you are already enrolled in a HSA-compatible plan, HSA elections will open in your Change Benefits event elections.
