Frequently Asked Questions Same Sex Domestic Partner Benefits

Advanced Search
What same-sex domestic partner benefits are available under Government-wide programs administered by OPM?

The following set of FAQs was developed to answer questions about the benefits available to the same-sex domestic partners or spouses of Federal employees, under title 5, United States Code.  Please note that information regarding eligibility for benefits can change quickly, and you should consult the web pages of the individual benefits programs for the most current information (see list of links in FAQ 24).  In addition, please note that these FAQs do not address benefits available to same-sex domestic partners outside of Title 5, such as travel and relocation benefits, which are administered by the General Services Administration.  (See http://www.gsa.gov/graphics/ogp/FTRBulletin1107.pdf.)
