SEBB Eligibility
SEBB eligibility for substitutes is determined by Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 182-31-040.
A substitute can earn SEBB benefits by:
Working 630 hours in a school year. Once the 630 hours is met, the substitute will be notified of SEBB eligibility and have 31 days to complete their enrollment.
Qualifying for a two year lookback of eligibility. Once a substitute has earned 630 hours for SEBB eligibility for two year consecutively, they will be eligible to continue their benefits at the start of the third school year. Example: If a substitute earned SEBB in the 22/23 and 23/24 school years, they would be eligible to continue their benefits into the 24/25 school year.
A verification of hours is conducted monthly to determine if any substitute, or staff on assignment, have earned SEBB benefits.
If you have a question if you are SEBB eligible, please reach out to benefits@auburn.wednet.edu.
SEBB Billing
We bill SEBB monthly based upon the wages you have earned the previous month. In August and September, a substitute is not anticipated to have a payroll check. Sebb billing will be set up to pull the monthly premium for August and September on the July payroll check.
Please reach out to benefits@auburn.wednet.edu if you need to discuss payment options for August and September.
