Surviving Spouse’s Beneficiary Designation

In the event of the retiree’s death, a surviving spouse who is enrolled in this plan must complete a Life Insurance Beneficiary Designation – Surviving Spouse form so the surviving spouse’s named beneficiary receives the proceeds of his or her life insurance benefit at death. If a beneficiary is not named, life insurance proceeds are subject to the same state mandatory order of beneficiary determination as described above in “Retiree’s Beneficiary Designation.” Life Insurance Beneficiary Designation – Surviving Spouse forms are available from the Trust Office.
