To add a dependent, navigate to the My Info tab and click Benefits on the employee profile. Scroll down to the Dependents table and click +Add Dependent.
Enter the new dependent's information in the pop-up window and then click Save.
Hover over a dependent's name in the table and click on the pencil icon to edit their information. If needed, click on the trash can icon to remove a dependent.
If you are using Benefit Administration, employees must complete the Name and Relationship fields for the dependent to be part of the enrollment experience.
Depending on how your administrator has configured your account, updates and changes to dependents' information may require approval before they can appear on your employee profile.
