This form should be completed in conjunction with IU’s Health Plan Enrollment Form and Affidavit of Domestic Partnership.

Do not include on this form children of the employee who are eligible dependents of the employee aside from the domestic partner relationship. Carefully read "Important Tax Information for Same-Sex Domestic Partner Benefits."
