As VFW members get older, they may need additional life insurance coverage. The VFW put together this plan to help members add to their family’s financial protection and combat the impact inflation has had on older policies.
No. As long as you’re a VFW member between the ages of 50 and 74, your acceptance is guaranteed. No medical exam is required and no health questions will be asked.
Rates start as low as $3.80/month and vary by age, gender, and benefit level. Group coverage rates may be lower than what you’d find on your own. See the Rates tab for a full rate table by age and benefit amount.
Members ages 50–64 can elect $5,000, $10,000, or $20,000 in coverage. Members age 65 may elect up to $10,000. At age 80 and above, the benefit amount is reduced to $5,000. Your spouse is eligible for the same benefit level you elect.
Coverage starts on the first of the month after your enrollment is activated and the first premium payment is received by the plan administrator.
During the first two years, if death results from a covered accident, your loved ones receive the full benefit. For non-accidental death in year one, beneficiaries receive 125% of the annual premium; in year two, 250%. Full benefits apply after two years.

Choice of Beneficiary
The benefits payable at your death will be paid according to the beneficiary you designate on your Enrollment Form unless you change your beneficiary in writing at a later date. If no beneficiary designation has been made, the benefits payable at your death will be paid to the survivors, in equal shares, in the first of the following classes to have a survivor at your death: your spouse, your children, your parents and siblings. If there is no survivor in these classes, payment will be made to your estate. The member is automatically the beneficiary for spouse coverage.
