From A Lifetime Of Coverage

Term life insurance provides coverage for a specific period and offers a death benefit if you pass away during the term. Universal life insurance, on the other hand, provides lifelong coverage and offers a death benefit alongside the potential to accumulate cash value.

Most adults who are in good health can apply for life insurance. Adults under the age of 59 are eligible for universal life insurance policies. Only individuals between the ages of 20 and 50 are eligible for term policies. You may not be eligible for life insurance if you have cancer, heart conditions, or other life-threatening medical conditions or lifestyle habits.

Members with SGLI coverage have two options if they want to convert their life insurance after their service ends. The first option is that they can convert their SGLI to VGLI, a renewable term insurance that has no cash value that builds over time and has premiums that can increase over time, making it a more expensive option long-term. The second option is that they can convert their SGLI to an individual commercial policy with providers like American Fidelity. American Fidelity’s coverage is meant to provide a more permanent alternative that keeps your costs low and provides full benefits, including cash accumulation.

SGLI is issued to active-duty service members, and once these service members are discharged, they have 120 days during the military separation period to transfer to either VGLI or a commercial permanent policy. Additionally, Retired Reserve soldiers are typically not eligible for SGLI and must convert to one of these options. You cannot convert SGLI to both VGLI and individual commercial life insurance at the same time. However, there is nothing preventing you from converting to one and separately obtaining the other. Converting your SGLI to a VGLI policy can be cost-effective at first, but over time, it doesn’t provide any living benefits and gets more expensive as you grow older. Our universal life insurance policy allows you to stay covered at a fixed rate and offers living benefits like cash accumulation. 

To convert from SGLI to an individual permanent insurance policy with providers from participating companies like AmFi, you must also convert within 120 days of the date of separation from the military. After this period, you still have an additional year to convert, but you would have to show proof of insurance and good health to convert if it’s past the initial 120-day period.
