Domestic partner details

Legally registered domestic partners

Legally registered domestic partners include:

  • Same-sex and opposite-sex couples who have registered with any state or local government domestic partnership registry
  • Registered domestic partners (two individuals who are registered domestic partners with the state) in a state in which they reside pursuant to a domestic partner registration law
  • Civil union partners (two individuals who are in a legally recognized civil union with the state) in a state in which they reside pursuant to a civil union law

If you’re legally registered domestic partners, you’re not required to provide proof of your relationship.

Note that the fair market value for domestic partner coverage is taxable to the employee. You’ll see the cost of domestic partner coverage added to your earnings—to incur the tax liability—and then deducted from your gross pay.

Non-legally recognized domestic partners

Partners not legally registered or recognized by any legal entity must meet the Autodesk domestic partner requirements.

You and your partner must be:

  • Each other’s sole partner and intend to remain so indefinitely
  • Engaged in a committed relationship of mutual caring and support
  • Jointly responsible for each other’s common welfare and financial obligations
  • At least 18 years of age and mentally competent to consent to a contract
  • Not related by blood to a degree that prohibits legal marriage in the state you legally reside
  • Living in the same residence and intend to do so indefinitely
  • Not married to or legally separated from anyone else

You must submit the certification of domestic partnership to Workday.
