My future spouse was previously court-ordered to provide health insurance for his two children, which he currently has on a non-federal plan. When we marry, will I be able to carry him and the two children on my FEHB plan? The children do not live with us, but I wasn’t sure if the court order overrules that requirement.

The simple answer is YES your stepchildren will be able to be covered by your FEHB family coverage. As a result of the Affordable Care Act, not the court order, children are covered under their parent’s FEHB health plan’s Self and Family enrollment until age 26.
