It may be a painful task but making it easier for family whom you would be leaving behind is a very hard thing to do indeed. The hardest thing that can happen would be to have you going without anybody knowing the details of your insurance and leaving your loved ones on their own to find out the details. Recommendations from the industry suggest that all possible information that can be gathered should be made know to all parties and that they should be aware of the existence of such records. These records will be vital in getting them to file for the claim on your life insurance in case the inevitable does happen. Information such as the following would speed up claims processing; the full name of the company which issued the policy, the location of the head office of that firm, the address of the main office (if the company is part of a group), the policy number, date of issuance, amount insured for, name and address of broker who sold the policy (brokers can greatly speed up claims if all necessary information is available), the type of policy and of course where the original life insurance policy is (which we would assume is a very safe place like a bank safety deposit box or in a personal vault that somebody knows the combination to). This information if all compiled and kept in a safe place can have them well on their way to recovery from the burden of one’s death allowing them to move on easier and faster.
