What Happens To Coverage When Your Dependent Child Reaches Age 19

Coverage for dependent children stops when the dependent reaches age 19. If the child is a full-time student at an accredited academic institution who depends upon you for support, you may continue the student's coverage until age 25, as long as the dependent remains single and qualifies as a full-time student.

To end coverage, complete the appropriate form available from the Vought Benefits Center within 60 days of the date the child becomes ineligible. Contact the Vought Benefits Center if you wish to enroll the dependent for COBRA coverage continuation.
