anyone engaged to a city employee? Health Insurance question

My FH is a city teacher and his benefits are better than mine.

I'm a city employee and a bunch of my co-workers did this before getting married.

They had to fill out some forms and go to 1 centre street to apply.

just remember that as soon as you get married have your FH change his paperwork. Apparently he will get taxed on your benefits as extra income as domestic partners, which is not the case if you two are married.

yes you can.. he would have to go to 65 court st. and speak with HR or call them..

we were going to do it but since you are 'interdependent' of him and do have your own health insurace, they will add the amount of the insurance onto his taxable income.

You usually need to prove you have been living together for a certain amount of time. I would suggest if you can wait, just wait it out until your wedding and then there will be no expenses incurred.
