Dependent/Beneficiary Relationship (UDC 08/RL)

You use these codes to define the relationship of the dependent or beneficiary to the employee. Examples of these codes are spouse, parent, child, or other relationship.

Use the Special Handling field in this code to limit a relationship to:

D: Dependent only.

B: Beneficiary only.

A: Both a dependent and a beneficiary.

For example, using the special handling code, you can specify that a spouse relationship qualifies as both a dependent and a beneficiary, but that a friend relationship qualifies a friend as a beneficiary only.
