someone posted that they did this. im just wondering if u can either post the information or FM me on how i cant do this and what i need to have to file for this.
i know it sounds so silly to get a domestic partnership now since we are getting married but i need to get his medical benefits so this is the only way we can do it.
TIA

Re: domestic partnership
if you are not eligible for domestic partnership, you should look into GHI Healthy NY insurance Its 208 dollars a month You need to make less than 25k a year, and all you have to show is a paystub

Re: domestic partnership
If you make more then 25K a year i think thats they cut off mark. I didn't make it at a lovely 27k a year .. freaking insane i am poor as anything. I make less per year now (less hours at work since going full time school) so i can go on it but who the hell can afford $200 for health insurance when i make nothing!!!!
If you had a kid you can get a nice setup for health insurance.. or if you work off the books.

Re: domestic partnership
there are papers you have to file with the city of new york (if that is his employer) he would get them from the secretary that handles insurance and benefits

Re: domestic partnership

Re: domestic partnership
Even though healthy NY is the poor mans plan, its still alot of money!!! $208 is hardly affordable, but if you were to get GHI on your own it would run you about $450 dollars a month. FH pays for all his employees health insurance at the office and its thousands of dollars a month. He pays mine for $208 too.

Re: domestic partnership
actually FH and I looked into this and his company will not cover me because we're not married and the only time they cover unmarried partners is if it is a homosexual relationship. My answer of telling him that I used to have a penis didn't fly...

Re: domestic partnership
Hello!! Yes I did mention Domestic partnership...I get health insurance through fh..I have been for the past 3 years! Definatly check it out.. go to employee relations at your job or his and ask. Its really easy...they pretty much walk you through it. You have to sign an affidavate that you will spend forever with each other...which is obviously fine haha....if you have any more questions I would be more then happy to help!! Good luck girls

You should really really double check this...if you argue with them, they might give in. Its not fair that they can be discriminating against you. If they offer it to homosexuals they should also offer it to heterosexuals, its only fair. My fh company offers it and we have it...just double check!!
