If the policy has been in force less than two years, it is considered “Contestable” and will be subject to further review, which could increase the processing time.

The Application includes a section where the policyholder may designate a beneficiary. Also, through the life of the policy, the policyholder may elect to change the primary beneficiary, add additional beneficiaries, or elect to list a contingent beneficiary under the policy. These changes are recorded in our computer system. It is important to note that we are unable to accept a change in beneficiary designation after the insured has passed.

If no beneficiary is chosen while the policy is in force or the listed beneficiary is no longer living at the time the insured passes, any benefit payable will be issued pursuant to the terms of the policy.

If you need to make changes to your beneficiary please contact Customer Service Department at (800) 300-0637 or (205) 325-4979.
