Do I have to use burial insurance benefits on funeral expenses?

After the policyholder of a burial or final expense plan passes away, the policy beneficiary can use the payout funds however they like. Many beneficiaries use the funds to cover funerals and related expenses, which currently cost an average of $10,000 in the United States. However, final expense payouts may be used for any expense, debt, bill, loan, or purchase at the beneficiary’s discretion.

How do you apply for burial insurance?

Applying for burial insurance is easy to do online. Simply surf to the insurance company website of your choice and search for “burial” or “final expense” insurance via the site’s search function. Most insurance company websites make it obvious where and how to sign up. You’ll need to provide your personal information, and in many cases you’ll need to answer a brief health-related questionnaire. This questionnaire helps the insurance company determine which of its plans is the best fit for your particular situation. If you’d rather talk to a real person instead of applying for burial insurance online, you can call the 800 numbers commonly listed on the insurance company websites. If the companies have local offices, you can visit them and speak with a licensed agent in person.

Do burial insurance premiums change?

Almost all burial insurance products boast guaranteed premiums. This means that your premium payments will never change over the life of the insurance as long as you make your payments on time. Premium amounts are determined based on your age, your sex, your current health, your family health history, your location, and several other factors. Guaranteed premiums will not change even if your health deteriorates, provided you meet all of the qualification requirements.
