Submit a Notification of Address Change in either of the following cases:
- When a dependent begins living apart from the insured person

[Voluntarily and Continuously Insured Persons and their dependents]
Submit a Notification of Address Change to the Health Insurance Association.
Submit the notification even for changes of address (changes of home address) that do not involve changes in the certificate of residence.

| Notes: | If you no longer live with a dependent due to a change of address, check whether the dependent certification criteria are still satisfied. [Spouse, child, parent, grandparent, great-grandparent, grandchild, or sibling]If the dependent lives apart from the insured for reasons other than an unaccompanied job posting or school attendance, the dependent must be provided with a monthly allowance by the insured to remain a dependent. [Parent in law, stepchild, or other family member within three degrees of consanguinity]The above family members must be removed from your list of dependents if living apart, since living together is a condition of dependent certification. Users of Myna health insurance cards will need to change their Individual Number Card addresses separately. Check with your municipality for details. |
