Frequently Asked Questions

We realize information regarding life insurance and annuities is not always easy to come by.  Here is a compiled list of some of the most frequently asked questions.

What if I lose my Certificate (Policy)?
If a policy is lost, the owner of the policy (also known as the “certificate”) can complete and return this form or send us a short letter, fax or email saying the policy is lost. Include the policy owner’s name, address, and telephone number, and the policy (certificate) number.

We will send you a Lost Policy Form, which you should complete, sign and return to the Home Office. Once we receive your Lost Policy Form, we will send a Duplicate Policy, which will replace your original policy.

As Primary Beneficiary, if someone dies, what do I do?

If a member dies, send us a letter by certified mail telling us the insured has died. With this letter, enclose all WPA policies the insured owned, and a certified copy of the death certificate. You should be able to get a certified copy of the death certificate from the funeral home. In your letter, be sure to include your name, address and telephone number.

Any policy proceeds will be made payable to the primary beneficiary listed on each policy.

How do I change my Beneficiary?

To change the beneficiary, the policy owner should send us a short letter, fax or email requesting a change of beneficiary. Include the policy owner’s name, address, and telephone number, and the policy number.

We will send you a Request For Change In Insurance Contract (Policy) Form. You should complete and sign the form and return it to the Home Office for endorsement. Once we receive your form, we will change the beneficiary on your policy.

When filling out the new beneficiary information, please include the shares. A share is the fraction or percentage of your policy’s proceeds that each beneficiary is to receive.

You must include at least one primary beneficiary on the Change of Beneficiary Form. The primary beneficiary receives the policy’s proceeds. The primary beneficiary must be someone other than the insured.

Naming one or more contingent beneficiaries is not required, but we recommend it. The contingent beneficiary receives the policy’s proceeds if the primary beneficiary is deceased at the time a claim is made on the policy.

Shares are required. This is a percentage (or fraction) to be divided among your beneficiaries.
