Dear Member:
In order to cover your common law spouse, LINECO requires the following information.
To support that your state recognizes your marriage, we will need a copy of your most recent state tax
return, showing you are filing as a married couple and a notarized statement acknowledging the tax
return has been filed with the state.
If allowed by your state, we will accept a copy of the "Declaration and Registration of Informal
Marriage" from the county where your marriage was established. A tax return and notarized statement
will not be necessary with this declaration.
Enclosed is a LINECO Form regarding common-law marriage, which must be signed by you and your
common-law spouse, notarized and returned to us.
**PLEASE NOTE THAT BY EXECUTING THIS AFFIDAVIT
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOUR COMMON-LAW MARRIAGE CAN BE DISSOLVED ONLY
THROUGH A JUDICIAL (i.e.
COURT) PROCEEDING.
If you have any questions, please call LINECO's toll- free number
1 (800) 323-7268 and ask for one of our claim service representatives.
Sincerely,
Enrollment Department
