My boyfriend and I are not wanting to get married yet, but we have a child on the way and want to make sure that all of us are covered under his insurance. What is the difference between a domestic partnership and marriage? If domestic partnership is not recognized federally- would this information need to be included on the FAFSA?
What about taxes?
Thanks.


I don’t think straight people qualify to be domestic partners, sorry. Legally you can marry, gays in most places can’t, hence why they invented the BS seperate but “equal” heading for them.
Domestic partnerships are for same sex couples. If your raising a child together, just go to the courthouse and sign the papers. You don’t even need to change your last name or tell anybody, except insurance providers and tax forms.
