Foresters’ PlanRight series of whole life insurance plans offer coverage for burial and final expenses up to age 121. The company also guarantees its premiums, which means that your monthly payments will never rise above the amount you agree to at the beginning of your insurance coverage. Foresters also offers what’s known as a common carrier accidental death rider. This means if you die of accidental injuries while riding as a fare-paying passenger on a bus, train, or aircraft, your beneficiary will receive extra death benefits. Foresters’ death benefits start at $2,000 and top out at $35,000, depending on your age and the plan you select. The company requires its final expense customers to be between the ages of 50 and 85.

Do I have to use final expense insurance benefits on funeral expenses?

Once the policy holder of a final expense plan passes away, the beneficiary of said policy may use the funds in any way they desire. Most beneficiaries use part or all of the funds for burial expenses, which currently average around $10,000 in the United States. That said, burial expense benefit payouts may be used for any other loan, debt, expense, bill, or purchase.

How do I apply for Foresters final expense insurance?

The quickest way to apply for burial or final expense insurance is to apply directly on an insurance company’s website. In many cases, you’ll need to answer a simple medical questionnaire. After you’ve completed this step and provided the company with your personal and billing information, you may be able to sign up for final expense insurance immediately. If you’d feel more comfortable talking to a live person, you may call the insurance company of your choice and speak with an agent. These agents are licensed and will be able to assist you in selecting the most appropriate final expense insurance policy for your specific needs.

Do final expense insurance premiums change?

Most final expense insurance policies feature guaranteed premiums. That means that your payments will remain the same until the benefit is paid out. Premiums are calculated based on your age and any health issues you may have. Then once you have accepted an offered premium, it will not change over the life of your insurance policy.

Some insurance companies do offer plans with staggered payout options, though, so you should read the fine print (or ask an agent for clarification) to be sure you understand exactly how your death benefit will be paid. For example, if you pass away before a certain amount of time has elapsed, your beneficiary may not receive 100% of the advertised payout.
