Taxation of Board-Paid Benefits
Taxation of monthly, Board dependent subsidy toward any type of domestic partner coverage occurs every month on the last paycheck of the month.
Employees enrolled in either medical, dental or vision coverage for a domestic partner or domestic partner and family will have the deduction taken from the employee’s paycheck as a post-tax deduction.
Employees covering a domestic partner of the same sex and legally married are able to add their eligible domestic partner on a tax-free basis with the proper documentation (marriage certificate).
The cost of Board-paid life insurance in excess of $50,000.00 will be taxed on every paycheck.

Employees Returning to Work after a Leave Status
Employees in a Board-approved leave of absence will be billed for employee-paid benefits in accordance to the type of leave.

If you return to work prior to receiving a Grace Period Notice, the premiums due will be automatically deducted from your bi-weekly check (one regular deduction plus one arrears) until the full amount of the outstanding premiums are paid in full.
