My company a) doesn't believe me when I say I'm married w/two kids or b) has money they can't figure out how to spend so hiring an outside audit firm to do a stupid review of "eligible dependents" seemed like a good place to waste some $$$.
I've worked for this company for almost 13 years. In all of those 13 years I've claimed the same spouse and had one dependent at the time of hire. I added an additional dependent two years into my employment.
Now I have to PROVE that they are truly eligible dependents by providing copies of our marriage certificate and the children's birth certificates.
This intrusion and waste of MY time is enough to make this overly worked, stressed woman want to crawl into her bed and say "SCREW YOU WORLD!"
PMS doesn't help either.
Wow! That is CRAZY! I have never heard of having to prove those things - I guess they are really cracking down. What will be next?
