2027 Open Enrollment

** COMING SOON***  

OPEN ENROLLMENT FOR 2027 WILL OPEN ON OCTOBER 1, 2026

• Voluntary Changes to your Healthcare Election

• Submission of new/changes of Healthcare Waiver Form Waiver Payments  - includes those hired in 2026

• New/Changes to your AFLAC Policies - sit down with an AFLAC representative

• Sign up for Flex Spending (must do annually)

You may change your Benefits outside of open enrollment provided you have a qualifying event 

and submit paperwork within 30 days after the event (prior to the event is best).  

You can make the following changes any time of the year:

• Update beneficiaries on your District paid Life Insurance Policy (if eligible).  HHHTA Members have a different Beneficiary Form

  • It's best to submit a new one in lieu of assuming who you put down when you were hired - Keep a copy for your records.

• Sign up or make changes to your NYSaves 529 Plans directly on the www.nysaves.org website and submit your payroll authorization form to The HHH Benefits Department

• Make changes to your Retirement Savings - OMNI 403 (pre-tax or ROTH) and/or NYS 457 (pre-tax or ROTH)

  • The District does not employ 403b brokers and none are exclusively approved by Half Hollow Hills [regardless of what is communicated to you via email or phone] nor are they permitted to meet with employees in District buildings.  We have contracted with OMNI to manage our 403b transactions via approved firms that work with OMNI - the brokers are individual agents of those firms.  This is YOUR money for YOUR future; make sure you know who your broker is (better yet, that your broker knows you) so that you can withdraw YOUR money when you are ready for it.

• ​Order additional NYSHIP cards HERE - complete the Google form and I will get them mailed directly to you by NYS Civil Service

• Change your Payroll Tax Withholding  - speak with your tax professional about the best way to fill out the W-4 or IT-2014 for your family/income/marital situation.

• Change your Direct Deposit
