In order for a change in status to qualify for a midyear election change, the change in status must be "on account of," and must correspond to, a change in status that affects the eligibility of an employee, spouse, or dependent for coverage under an employer's plan. This change in status includes only a change that would make an individual eligible or ineligible for a particular benefit package option under the plan. The regulations do not permit midyear election changes for family members who are not affected by the change in status, such as unaffected children in the case of a divorce or death of a spouse.
