1. Overview of Coverage. A FamilySecure policy is a permanent life insurance product combining a death benefit for your beneficiaries with an accumulating cash value component you may access during your lifetime. This document summarizes how coverage works; your actual policy contract, issued after underwriting, governs all specific terms.
2. Eligibility. Coverage is available to applicants who meet FamilySecure's age, residency, and health eligibility criteria. Most applicants qualify through a short health questionnaire; some coverage amounts may require additional underwriting or a medical exam.
3. Death Benefit. In the event of the policyholder's death, FamilySecure pays the designated beneficiary(ies) the policy's death benefit, less any outstanding loans, withdrawals, or unpaid premiums, in accordance with the terms of the issued policy contract.
4. Cash Value Accumulation. A portion of each premium payment is allocated toward the policy's cash value, which accumulates over time on a tax-deferred basis. Cash value growth depends on the plan selected, premium amount, and duration of the policy.
5. Accessing Cash Value. Policyholders may access accumulated cash value through:
6. Premiums. Premiums are due monthly (or on the schedule selected at registration). Missed payments may be covered temporarily by accumulated cash value during a grace period before the policy lapses. Premium amounts and coverage levels can be adjusted upon request, subject to review.
7. Exclusions and Limitations. Certain causes of death, pre-existing conditions, or circumstances disclosed inaccurately during application may limit or exclude death benefit payment, as detailed in the full policy contract. A contestability period may apply during the early years of the policy.
8. Beneficiary Designation. Policyholders may name and update primary and contingent beneficiaries at any time through their account dashboard.
9. Reinstatement. A lapsed policy may be eligible for reinstatement within a specified period, subject to new underwriting and payment of past-due premiums.
10. Free-Look Period and Cancellation. New policyholders may cancel within 30 days of registration for a full premium refund. See the Cancellation Policy for full details on cancelling after this period.
11. Governing Terms. This summary is for informational purposes. The formal policy contract issued by the underwriting carrier upon approval is the governing legal document and takes precedence over any description on this website.
