Commonly required by employers and their insurance carriers to prevent fraud in enrolling participants in various benefit programs, they�re somewhat controversial among both critics and advocates of gay rights. Domestic partner affidavits generally pertain only to a specific benefit or set of benefits offered by a single entity, such as an employer or housing administrator.
