It shouldn't be a problem if your coverage ends then that is one of the reasons you can be added at anytime during the year... otherwise you have to wait to the open enrollment period

So I won't have to wait then? That would save me a headache and about $500 for COBRA

thanks

You shouldn't have to wait. Have him call your regional offices and speak to people in payroll. They should be able to do it at any time of the year. Direct Deposit is the only thing that they only process every 6 months according to my payroll secretary.

I dont work for the city but it is possible that if you have a "life event" you can add a person within 30 days. If not, you may have to wait til open enrollment

When we got married DH put me on his insurance right away...I think he just spoke to his payroll secretary and she gave him the correct form.
