Insurance Information

Tax-Free Retirement: permanent life insurance can provide a number of tax benefits if structured and funded properly.

Whole Life, Universal Life and Index Universal Life policies provide:

• Tax deferred growth of cash value

• Business owners who want to build a tax free nest egg
• Individual savers who want to retire before age 59 ½ without penalty taxes

FEGLI Supplemental Coverage

Federal employees have a group life insurance program called the Federal Employee Group Life Insurance program or “FEGLI”. Basic Insurance and optional coverages are available under this program.

FEGLI Basic Insurance – equal to salary rounded up to the next even thousand, plus $2,000

FEGLI offers three types of optional insurance:

• Option A – standard in the amount of $10,000
• Option B – additional, in an amount from 1 to 5 times your annual rate of pay after rounding up to the next even $1000
• Option C – provides family coverage for spouse and children up to $25,000 for the spouse and $12,500 of coverage for each child

FEGLI premium rates are based upon age only, with no distinction for gender or tobacco use. As employees grow older, the cost per $1,000 of coverage increases.

For example, a 45-year-old male earning $50,000 a year will pay $43.25 per month for Option B, with five times coverage. At age 65 his cost will increase to $335.75 per month, a rather astounding increase!!

FABC offers affordable and potentially money-saving alternative to FEGLI options, giving federal employees more choices and greater flexibility for coverage and budget needs.

Simplified Issue - many insurance companies require medical exams in order to determine whether or not to provide life insurance coverage. At FABC we offer a number of  ”simplified issue” products that do not require medical exams. If you qualify, you can obtain coverage that starts right away, without the hassle of a medical exam.

Spousal Coverage – insurance on a nonworking spouse is important because it will provide funds to pay to replace the things your loved one provided during their life.

Taking care of children, the household…. just make a list of all the things he nonworking spouse does to keep the family on track. You will be amazed at what it would cost to replace all of these things!
