When you hear us refer to a "dependant", we mean a person who is dependant upon the primary member. This includes children, stepchildren, legally adopted children, or children to whom the primary member is the legal guardian.
Dependants can stay on your family health insurance membership until their 21st birthday or, for full-time students at a recognised educational institution, until their 31st birthday. Dependants are not income-tested and do not have to live at home; however, if they're married or in a de-facto relationship, they are not able to stay on the family membership
To register a dependant as a student, please complete a Student Declaration Form and return it to hello@hif.com.au. Dependants without a student declaration will be automatically removed from a family membership on their 21st birthday.
