Juvenile Estate Term Plan
(JET)
Term insurance for anyone under 22 years of age. Term life insurance provides coverage for a specified period of time (or term). The certificate matures on the certificate anniversary date nearest the insured’s 25th birthday. At maturity, a non-cash conversion credit is calculated and applied toward the premium of a NEW permanent life insurance plan, regardless of the insured’s health.
The Juvenile Estate Term Plan (JET*), more commonly referred to as Term to 25, is available to those less than twenty-two (22) years of age and matures when the insured’s certificate reaches the anniversary of issue date closest to his/her 25th birthday. Once the certificate is issued, coverage remains in force through the maturity date of the certificate. In the event of death prior to the maturity date, the face amount is payable to the named beneficiary selected.
When the JET plan expires, the insured will be given the option to convert their current coverage amount to a legal reserve plan (permanent insurance) without completing any medical questions. This is a guarantee provision within the JET contract. The insured cannot be turned down.
Coverage amounts and annual premium amounts are:
$5,000 – $9.50 Annually**
$10,000 – $16.00 Annually**
*JET certificates are not a legal reserve plan and therefore are not entitled to the benefits provided with a legal reserve plan.
**Includes $1.00 Branch Administration Fee.
