GUIDELINES FOR DESIGNATION OF BENEFICIARIES
General
- Please be sure to include the beneficiary’s full name, social security number and
relationship to you. Providing
this information can help expedite the claim process by making it
easier to locate and verify beneficiaries.
Minors - While you may designate minors as beneficiaries, please note that claim payments may
be delayed due to special issues raised by these designations. In the event of a claim and the
beneficiary is a minor child, the insurance proceeds will not be released to the minor child. The
insurance proceeds may be paid to a duly appointed guardian of the
child’s estate. You may want to
obtain the assistance of an attorney in drafting your beneficiary designation.
Trust as Beneficiary - You may designate a trust as beneficiary, using the following form: “To
[name of trustee], trustee of the [name of trust], under a trust agreement dated [date of trust].”
If you wish to designate a testamentary trust as beneficiary (i.e., one created by will), you should
recognize the possibility that your will which was intended to create this trust may not be admitted
to probate (because it is lost, contested, or superseded by a later will). Claim payment delays can
result if the beneficiary designation doesn’t provide for this situation.
Life Status Changes
- We recommend that you review your beneficiary designation when
significant life status events occur, such as marriage, divorce, or birth of a child.
See an Attorney!
The above guidelines are general and are not intended to be relied on as legal
advice. Unless your designation is a simple one, we recommend that you obtain the assistance of
an attorney in drafting your beneficiary designation. A qualified attorney can help assure that your
beneficiary designation correctly reflects your intentions, is clear and unambiguous, and meets
legal requirements.
