I’m Getting Married or Divorced
Whether you’re starting or ending your relationship, your Ancestry benefits can be affected.
You have 30 days from the date of your marriage or divorce or legal separation to enroll in or make changes to your benefits. Note: You must provide a marriage certificate, proof of domestic partnership, or divorce decree in order to add or remove a spouse or domestic partner. In the case of a divorce, your ex-spouse will not be eligible for Ancestry benefits as of your divorce date. To make changes to your benefits and add or remove a spouse, please follow these instructions.
