A:COBRA law requires the employer or plan administrator give you a 30 day grace period to make your payment. Payments made after the 30 day grace period do not have tobe accepted by your previous employer and your COBRA continuation coveragewill be terminated. If they emplyer or plan administrator give you a 30 day grace period, you should contact the US Department of Labor at 1-866-487-2365.
