Legal Question in Family Law in New York
Hello,
I live in New York. I need to know what legal documents are needed for me to have my boyfriend's daughter covered under my medical insurance. I have been assisting her father with taking care of her for the last 13 years. We have lived together for 5 years now and I have been financially responsible for her for the last 3 years.
Thank you,

You can't have her covered under your medical insurance since she is not your daughter. You would have to either obtain separate insurance for the girl, or adopt the child.
