About this insurance

What is Term Life Insurance?

Term Life Insurance protects the remaining family members in the event that a financial provider unexpectedly passes away.

The term is for how long you think you’ll need life insurance. You’ll pay premiums over the duration of the term. Your family is only eligible to receive a death benefit during the term, and as long as you’re paying premiums.

You’ll need to decide how much “death benefit” your family needs. As you might suspect, your premium depends on how much “death benefit” your family will receive. So if you’re only looking to leave $50,000 behind to cover taxes, your premium will be a lot less than a $1 million policy intended to support your dependents for several years.

Freelancers Union provides access to Guardian’s term life insurance policy, a flexible, easy-to-use plan designed especially for freelancers.

Guardian

To enroll in term life, you must answer a few basic health history questions when you apply. Based on those answers, you may be asked to provide more detailed health information in an evidence of insurability form. If you apply for more than $100,000 in coverage, you will also need to supply an evidence of insurability form and may be issued $100,000 while a review is ongoing for the higher amount. Once approved, your coverage will increase to the requested amount. If you decide to increase coverage levels, you’ll need to provide evidence of insurability. Dependents can get coverage once you’re enrolled. Your spouse is eligible for up to 50% of your coverage level and will need to submit evidence of insurability for coverage above $50,000. Members enrolled in term life coverage can insure children for up to $4,000 per child. The monthly cost per child is $2.52 per month. Coverage level decreases by 50% at age 65, and coverage ends at 70.
