It starts with filling out a death claim form and submitting it with a certified copy of the death certificate to the insurance carrier. Upon reciept it is usually a matter of a few days mail time from notification to presentation of the death benefit.Answered on April 8, 2013+01+1 this answer

You will need a copy of the death certificate. Once the company receives the death claim and death certificate they will usually issue a check very quickly, usually within a couple weeks.Answered on May 24, 2013flag this answer
0 POINTSContact Meview profileDavid RacichPROFountain Hills, ArizonaWhen the death of the insured occurs, you need to collect the obituary, the certificate of death and add a cover letter outlining the event to the life insurance company. In general the death claims proceeds should be paid out 30-60 days after the receipt of these documents. The time could be longer in death occurred in the contestability period, generally the first two first from the date of coverage.Answered on May 24, 2013+01+1 this answer 0flag this answerview more answers by David Racich- 0 POINTSContact Meview profileDavid RacichPROFountain Hills, ArizonaNot long after the life insurance company has received the obituary, certificate of death and you are confirmed as the legal beneficiary of the death benefit proceeds.
