Sec. 892.208  Can I change my enrollment from self and family to self 
only at any time?

    If you are participating in premium conversion you may change your 
FEHB enrollment from self and family to self only under either of the 
following circumstances:
    (a) During the annual open season. A change to self only made during 
the annual open season takes effect on the 1st day of the first pay 
period that begins in the next year.
    (b) Within 60 days after you have a qualifying life event. A change 
to self only made because of a qualifying life event takes effect on the 
first day of the first pay period that begins after the date your 
employing office receives your appropriate request. Your change in 
enrollment must be consistent with and correspond to your qualifying 
life event. For example, if you get divorced and have no dependent 
children, changing to self only would be consistent with that qualifying 
life event. If both you and your spouse are Federal employees, and your 
youngest dependent turns age 22, changing from a self and family to two 
self only enrollments would be consistent and appropriate for that 
event.
