Q. I would like to apply for life insurance on my spouse, as the member, do I have to apply for life insurance on myself too?A. Yes, as the member, you must apply for at least the minimum of $10,000 to insure your spouse up to the maximum of $200,000.
Q. Can I keep this Term Life Insurance when I retire?A. Yes, you may keep the life insurance as long as you remain a dues paying APWU member, pay the necessary premiums and the group policy stays in force. We will then bill you directly on a Monthly, Quarterly or Annual basis, whichever is the most convenient for you. Another option is Electronic Fund Transfer form your checking or savings account. We cannot deduct the premium from your Annuity.
