Your kids can stay on your policy if they meet the criteria of a dependant.

A dependant is a child who is under the age of 21 and is:

  • covered by a family or single parent policy; and
  • is not married or living in a de-facto relationship.

At HBF we also choose to cover dependants under 25 years of age provided they meet the criteria in the 2 points noted above and they:

  • are a full-time student; or
  • earn no more than $24,500 taxable income per calendar year.
