Beneficiary Designation
Remember the following when completing your Beneficiary
Designation form:
Clearly identify your beneficiary(ies), providing each beneficiary’s full name, date of birth,
Social Security number, address, and relationship to you.
You can name primary and contingent beneficiaries.
Primary:
The primary beneficiary is the individual(s) who will receive the insurance
proceeds at the time of your death.
Contingent:
A contingent beneficiary, or secondary beneficiary, is the individual(s)
who will receive the insurance proceeds if the primary beneficiary(ies) dies
before you. Naming a contingent beneficiary is important, as you may outlive the
primary beneficiary or die simultaneously.
If you name more than one primary or contingent beneficiary, make sure the beneficiary
percentages add up to 100 percent for each class of beneficiary (primary and contingent).
Minor child:
A minor child can be named as a beneficiary, but benefits cannot be released
directly to the minor child. Benefits will be paid to the court-appointed guardian of the minor
child’s estate (or property). Parents are not automatically the guardians of a minor’s estate.
A parent may need to petition a local probate court where the child lives to be named
guardian of the child’s estate.
Make sure you sign and date the beneficiary designation form.
If no beneficiary is named, or if no beneficiary survives you, settlement will be made as
provided in the Group Contract.
To assist you, here are some examples of clear beneficiary
designations.
