Voluntary Life and AD&D

Voluntary life insurance gives you the chance to buy a greater amount of coverage through your company for you, and buy insurance for your dependents. 

It is very important that you choose a beneficiary when you sign up for voluntary life insurance. If you are purchasing voluntary coverage for your spouse or children, you will automatically be the beneficiary—but if you are purchasing coverage for yourself, you must name a beneficiary to be sure your benefit goes where you want it to.

Some plans require you to name your spouse as your beneficiary if you are married.
