Question
My daughter was being covered by my ex-husband on his insurance. He lost his job in December of 2008. He was suppose to get coverage for her. There is no communication with him at all and I can't find out if she is covered. I am now having to add my 20 year old son because he is going back to college. I want to add my daughter because I don't think she is covered. I do know that her father still does not have a job. My company does not want to allow me to add her. Is there anything that I can do?
Answer
Tough question. Is the coverage for your daughter part of a divorce settlement. How old is she? How can the father be covering the child if he is not working. You would need a note from the insurance company with the status of her coverage to show your employer. Not an easy thing..
