Marriage
There is much excitement and planning that happens with an engagement and upcoming marriage. Be sure to take the time to coordinate your benefits with your new dependent. Marriage is considered a “qualifying life event” in terms of your benefits. This means you can update your benefit enrollments within 31 days of the marriage without having to wait for the next open enrollment period. The following items are a few things you should consider during this life change event.

If you are changing bank accounts or want to change your direct deposit set-up, complete a Direct Deposit Authorization Form and submit it to the Payroll Department, 200 University Hall.
