How long can my children remain covered?

Your children remain covered if they are unmarried, under 19 years old, or 22 years old or younger as long as they qualify as dependents for income tax purposes and are full-time students (12 or more credits) at an accredited college, university, vocational or technical school. Anthem Blue Cross requires written proof of student status annually. Please see your Evidence of Coverage booklet/policy for more details. The age limit for children to remain on your policy is 23 years old. At that time, they may transfer to their own Individual plan.
