Military Spouse Life Insurance

As a military spouse, chances are you lead a very active life. Between PCS moves, deployments, raising children, and growing a career, the last thing on your mind is life insurance—but it’s critical that you establish plans for the future, whether you’re just starting out or you’re a seasoned MilSpouse.

Life insurance is one of the most important investments you’ll ever make, and an essential element in your family’s financial security plan. However, it’s especially important for military spouses like you to actively seek out a comprehensive policy for yourself.

Servicemembers automatically enroll to buy life insurance coverage through the military’s Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance (SGLI) program. At the same time, the government also automatically enrolls civilian military spouses in the dependent version of this coverage, known as Family Servicemembers’ Group Life Insurance (FSGLI)—but the maximum coverage amount available from FSGLI is not enough to cover most military family needs. Not to mention, both programs end and coverage is lost when your family leaves the military. Therefore, you must be proactive about purchasing a life insurance policy to ensure you have enough coverage for your entire family, even after you transition back to civilian life.

 

Military Spouse Life Insurance Policies

Each MilSpouse has their own story and experience. When it comes to life insurance, the little details that make up who you are and the life you lead have a significant impact on your decision-making process. Factors such as your age, income, health history, and other personal circumstances all play a role in determining which life insurance policy is right for you. 

While military servicemembers covered under SGLI are eligible to apply for Family Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance (FSGLI), this policy is rather limited and may not provide the best solution for all military spouses and their dependents.
