- The deadline to submit a Petition to Waive for any 2024-25 coverage period is 11:59 p.m. EST on August 18, 2025.
- If you experience a Qualifying Event and wish to modify an existing selection or waiver, submit the Qualifying Event form within 31 days. Do not submit a Petition to Waive or Petition to Enroll.
