Processing

Along with the claim form, you may need to provide additional documents.  For Living Benefits, you may need medical records. For death, you'll need a death certificate. Your agent will walk you through what's needed. Once you’ve submitted a claim, the approval process begins. Insurance companies typically process claims within a few days to a few weeks.

Approval

For most straightforward claims, the approval process can take a few business days to a couple of weeks. However, in cases requiring further investigation, the process may take longer.  You're agent will keep you informed each step of the way.

Paying out

Upon claim approval, decide how you'd like to receive the death benefit.  Common options may include:

  • Lump Sum: A one-time payment of the entire benefit.
  • Installments: Regular payments over a specified period.
  • Annuity: Guaranteed payments for life or a set number of years.
