Late Application Restrictions

Failure to advise the Benefits/Human Resource Services of changes such as marital status, birth of a child, or lost spousal coverage within 31 days of the event, will result in you, your spouse and/or dependents becoming late applicants with late applicant restrictions being imposed. If an employee cancels benefit coverage during a leave of absence, he/she as well as dependents will be late applicants when the employee returns to work. The insurance carriers, not the School District, impose restrictions.
