Life Insurance Information for Veterans

Veterans and military families may have government-sponsored, employer, association, or private-market coverage available. This page focuses on private insurance and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Department of Veterans Affairs or any government agency.

Review existing benefits first

Identify any SGLI, VGLI, employer, survivor, or individually owned policies already in place. Note benefit amounts, conversion deadlines, premiums, beneficiaries, and portability.

Private coverage may fill a gap

A private policy may be considered for family income, a mortgage, final expenses, or longer-term protection. Health and other underwriting factors affect options.

No government endorsement

My Insurance Quotes is not the VA, does not administer government benefits, and does not imply government endorsement.

Product availability, eligibility, features, and rates vary by state, carrier, and individual circumstances. Coverage is not effective until a carrier approves an application and the required premium is paid.
