Frequently Asked Questions
How much life insurance should I consider?
Financial advisors recommend having enough life insurance to cover ten times your salary, but individual life insurance needs differ based on your family’s overall financial wellness plan. The best thing to do is think about your current expenses, your plans for your family’s future, and what might happen if you were to die unexpectedly.
What is Quick Decision?
Quick Decision is an automated underwriting process that allows prospective members under age 50 to apply for up to $1M and those under age 60 to apply for up to $750,000 in life insurance and designed to reach a decision in minutes.
How is Quick Decision different than a standard underwriting process?
The standard underwriting process takes an average of about 30 days before a prospective member can be approved for any amount of life insurance and can include medical exams.
