Change in acceptable Proof to add a spouse to Health Benefits Coverage
To: Benefit Eligible Staff
New Jersey Division of Pensions & Benefits (NJDPB) will no longer consider joint
ownership of debt as proof of marriage to add a spouse to a member's health
coverage. Upon submission of a marriage license you must now submit the front
page of your federal tax return (Form 1040) from the previous year that includes
your spouse. If filing separately, you can submit a copy of both spouses' tax
returns that displays the same address. If the marriage occurred in the current
calendar year, a copy of the tax return is not required. In this case you may
provide a copy of a bank statement or bill (dated within 90 days of the
application) that includes the names of both spouses and is received at the same
address.
**Please note: Members may black out all financial information and all but the
last four digits of any Social Security Numbers on tax returns.
