Protection You and Your Family Can Count On
Ensure peace of mind. Protect your family financially from an unexpected death and loss of income with AFBA member benefits funded by group level term life insurance specially designed for government employees and underwritten by 5Star Life Insurance Company. You and your spouse are eligible to enroll for amounts up to $500,000 through age 64 provided you are a United States citizen. Your children are eligible for coverage up to $50,000.
As a government contractor, you may often find yourself in unique work situations—working, living, or traveling to dangerous locations. Unfortunately, many adults with dependents lack sufficient coverage to protect their survivors if they were to die unexpectedly. You can protect your loved ones if something were to happen to you on or off the job.
Coverage features
No war or terrorism exclusions. You are covered on and off duty with no hazardous, line of duty or occupational restrictions.
Emergency death benefit. Payment of up to $15,000 mailed within one business day of notification of death (subject to contestability).
Keep the coverage. After you retire or separate, you can continue your coverage for you and your family as long as contributions are paid.
Optional spouse and child coverage. Easily purchase coverage using the same enrollment form.
Additional features
No medical exam under age 50 for up to $250,000, ages 50-55 for up to $100,000, and ages 56-59 for $50,000 of total insurance coverage. Just complete the enrollment form and answer a few health questions. Coverage is not guaranteed to issue and is dependent upon the answers to the health questions and underwriting approval.
Coverage from $50,000 to $500,000. Based on your individual situation, you decide how much coverage is right for you and your family.
Coverage continues to age 70. If insurance contributions are paid, coverage cannot be canceled. Contributions change on the anniversary of your coverage effective date following entry into a new age group. Contributions are based on current age at enrollment. Contributions may increase should AFBA encounter a significant change to cost factors like expenses, persistency, mortality or interest rates. Refer to your Certificate of insurance for more details.
Coverage under the Children’s Rider. Dependent children under age 21 (23 if a full-time student) are eligible for coverage under the Children’s Rider. Simply answer a few health questions. Coverage is effective upon underwriting approval. Ages 15 days to 6 months: $1 per $1,000 of coverage up to $5,000. Ages 6 months to 21 years: $1 per $5,000 of coverage up to $25,000. Or ask about our Children’s Protect Term Life Insurance which provides $50,000 of individual coverage.
