The policy does not apply to benefits controlled by the state or the Board of Regents. The policy (http://provost.wisc.edu/dpp.html) contains criteria for determining domestic partner status, instructions for accessing services (including a caveat that some units may require applicants to meet additional criteria), and a link to the Declaration of Domestic Partnership form.
