Mine is in Local 94- Operating Engineers

I am pretty sure I get the same benefits as he would. In fact, I don't have dental through my job so I use his.

But when I asked to switch over to his completely I thought I remembered them asking for a letter stating my employer did not offer medical insurance, which they do, so I did not switch. Is that possible?

I asked them this. b/c a lot of the paperwork I got was regarding DH insurance becoming my secondary carrier, but they say it does notmake a difference if I am offered benefits through my job.....
