extended up to 3 months after the date you became newly eligible or had 
a QLE or after the end of an open season. To qualify, you must 
demonstrate to the carrier that you were not able to enroll or change 
your enrollment on time for reasons beyond your control.
    (b) If the carrier allows you to make a belated enrollment or 
enrollment change, you must enroll or change within 30 days after the 
carrier notifies you of its determination.
