OPM Requires Federal Employees to Re-Certify Spouse and Child FEHB Eligibility

A r/fednews user reports that OPM is asking enrollees to re-certify spouse and child eligibility for federal insurance, even for long-covered dependents, with documents such as birth and marriage certificates. The post says a deadline applies, but the submission instructions appear incomplete or unclear and the process is not yet open. This is an unverified user report, so employees should confirm details with OPM and their carrier.
