children's term rider

The amount of term life insurance coverage that the children's term insurance rider provides is usually modest. This modest amount reflects the generally smaller death benefit need when a child dies. A common approach to setting children's term rider limits is to issue the rider for a specified amount (such as $5,000 or $10,000). Alternately, a rider can be issued for a specified percentage of the amount of coverage on the primary insured parent's base policy (such as 20 percent). Many children can be covered under a single children's term rider. But, the coverage for any covered child normally ends when he or she reaches a certain age. Depending on the insurer, that age limit may be 18, 21, or 25. Coverage under the rider for other covered children who have not yet reached the limiting age stays in force. When coverage ends for any covered child, the child can convert the coverage to any permanent life insurance policy the insurer is then issuing. Evidence of insurability is not required. The policy amount can be up to some multiple of the term life insurance coverage, such as five times the term amount. For example, a child who has $5,000 of coverage under a children's term insurance rider could convert to a permanent life insurance policy of up to $25,000.

family term rider

A family term rider is an alternative to either a separate spousal rider or separate children's rider. This rider covers multiple family members (spouse plus children) equally with term insurance. The policyowner can add or drop insureds on this type of policy at any time. If adding insureds, proof of insurability must be provided. Children covered by this rider can convert their coverage to permanent coverage at age 21 without proof of insurability. Typically, the converted policy's face value can be up to five times the coverage under the family term rider.

other insured term rider

A person can buy an other insured life rider to cover the life of a spouse (or other adult with an insurable interest). Usually the coverage ends sometime before the other insured's age 100 because the intent of this coverage is temporary. Term life insurance riders on spouses are often bought to provide additional coverage while children are still young and to ensure needed additional funds in the event the other covered spouse dies.`
