If you are the sole owner of your policy, you may add, remove and/or update information to existing beneficiaries on your policy via this website.  If you are the sole owner of your policy, have granted transaction authority for your agent or have added a third party with transaction authority, a partial disbursement may be made on your policy via this website.

Helpful Beneficiary Definitions:

  • Primary Beneficiary: The person/entity who will receive payments from the annuity upon the death of the owner and/or annuitant.
  • Contingent Beneficiary: A contingent beneficiary, or secondary beneficiary, serves as a backup to the primary beneficiaries and will be paid out if there are no surviving primary beneficiaries.
