Telling It Like It Is
We just found out my father is terminally illl...and NO life insurance!!!?
His brother and sister-in-law were supposed to have his policy in case of an emergency and now they claim they don't have it. We also called a couple of insurance companies he might have been under and they have no record of his policy. He's only 54 and we think he may have 2-5 years before he passes. What are my options?

Life insurance is something you never use until you actually need it and if you don't have it when you need it you can't buy it for any price.

You're only possible options and it's a VERY slim one is to contact an insurance broker and look into a gauranteed issue product. These products are very expensive and there is a pre-existing conditions clause, however some of those clauses are just for the first 5 years. Basically, if he's only expected to last 2-5 years, you're betting that he makes it bast that 5 year hump or you lose what you paid in.

I wish there were more options. The only real option is to be an advocate and make sure that people knwo about your situation so you can save others from what I assume is a fairly stressful situation.

The only thing you can really do he keep contacting insurance companies to see if there are records. Unless your father or the people that were supposed to have the policy can't remember where he got the policy from there's not a lot that can be done. Sorry.

You're not going to be able to get a new policy on a person who is terminally ill, so your best bet is to try to locate an existing policy. Who was supposed to be paying the premiums? That person should have a record of payments that might help you to track down the existing policy.

Start saving for the funeral costs.

It's too late now, to buy him insurance.

Apparently his brother was supposed to buy a policy, and never did? Even if he DID buy a policy for your dad, HE would get to pick who gets the money, so that wouldn't necessarily help you out at all.

If you're asking, is there a central database where you can look up policies, the answer is no - it's a private transaction, protected by privacy laws. If your dad wasn't paying for life insurance, though, he doesn't have any.

Sorry about that. I hope the family can pull together for this tragedy.

Are you saying he doesn't have a policy or just that you can't find it? If there is no existing policy, it's too late now. No company will issue a policy under those circumstances.

Talk to your father...He should be able to tell you about any policies and with which companies he had carried them. He should also be able to tell you if he still has the policies in force.... If he for some reason can't remember, then contact his place of employment ( or his past employer) usually Life Insurance is carried through an employer..So this may be a source of information for you.. Has he been on medication that might impare his memory? If not, then he is certainly your best sorce of information...It would seem that he should have at least kept copies of any policies he may have given to his brother...if your father seems confused, then you need to call an attorney ASAP..When it comes to money, familes can become very deceitful...Protect your interests...Any reason that your father might have given these supposed policies to his brother instead of you? Just wondering.....Good luck...

And remember, your father is dying, and that should be the most important thing...Money comes and goes throughout your lifetime...You only have ONE father...try to spend whatever time he has left in the best way you can...Share memories, do simple things, stay close to him, and let him know how much you love him...everything else will fall into place....Time passes so quickly and he is living on borrowed time right now...Make the best of it, and do everything you can for him. That way you don't have to beat yourself up after he is gone.....You are lucky that you have a chance to get prepared for this...You have a chance to mend any broken fences, lots of us never have that chance...
