Spouse and Spousal Coordination of Benefits (COB)

Enroll/Drop my Spouse

If you want to enroll or drop a spouse as a result of a qualifying event during the year, you must contact Wage Works within 30 days of the qualifying event and request the change.

If enrolling a spouse for the first time, you MUST supply additional documentation to Wage Works within 30 days of the request, including birth certificate, social security card and copy of marriage/civil union certificate as applicable.

See Qualifying Events for more information, including a list of supporting documentation.

Please be sure to review the Spousal Coordination of Benefits page for more information, including the State SCOB Policy, Chart and online form. You must complete a Spousal COB form ONLY if you are enrolling a spouse in your health plan. This policy does not impact the State’s dental and vision plan enrollment.

Failure to complete the Spousal COB Form and/or provide additional documentation when required may result in a reduction of spousal benefits.
