Domestic Partnership
Sharing your life with a significant other is not unlike marriage. It's a bond of love and trust, and with it comes similar concerns... financial stability, health and life insurance coverage, legal issues.
You may enroll your domestic partner in lieu of a spouse. To qualify as a domestic partnership, you must meet the guidelines listed here. Please note that the IRS requires that premiums for Domestic Partners and their children who are not your tax dependents be taken on a post-tax basis. We are required to add the company's portion of the cost of coverage for non-tax dependents to your taxable income.

Checklist
- Review Life Insurance Coverage
When your estate increases (buying a home), your salary increases, or you add dependents (getting married, having a baby), your life insurance should also increase to protect those who depend on you. This is a good time to review your policy and increase your coverage, if warranted.
- Enroll Partner in Health Plans
- Domestic Partners are eligible to be added to our health plans through ADP. Two steps; 1.) add your partner in ADP as a dependent and 2.) add your partner to your health plans. Questions? Contact totalrewards@sana.com
- Review Tax Withholding
You may also want to adjust your tax withholding on your paycheck. You can review your current filing status in ADP and make any changes there.
