Coverage for Everyone. No Questions Asked.

Guaranteed Issue Life Insurance offers permanent life insurance protection with no medical exam and no health questions — guaranteed approval regardless of your health history. Ideal for ages 50–85 who need final expense coverage or have been declined elsewhere.

What Is Guaranteed Issue?

Life Insurance With Zero Barriers

Guaranteed Issue (GI) life insurance is a type of whole life insurance that cannot be denied based on your health. You simply apply, pay the premium, and your coverage begins — no doctors, no labs, no questionnaires.

It’s designed to cover final expenses — funeral costs, outstanding medical bills, credit card debt, and other end-of-life expenses — so your loved ones aren’t left with financial burdens during an already difficult time.

How It Works

Simple Coverage in 3 Steps

01

Apply in Minutes

Fill out a brief application — your name, date of birth, address, and beneficiary. No health questions, no medical history required.

02

Instant Approval

Because there's no underwriting, approval is immediate. Your policy is issued the same day your first premium is received.

03

Lifetime Protection

Your coverage remains in force for life as long as premiums are paid. Premiums never increase, and your benefit never decreases.

04

Benefit Paid to Family

Upon passing, your beneficiaries receive a lump-sum, income-tax-free death benefit — typically within 30 days of claim submission.

Who It's For

Is Guaranteed Issue Right for You?

Guaranteed Issue Life Insurance is the ideal solution when other options have become unavailable or inaccessible due to age or health.

Key Features

What Makes Guaranteed Issue Unique

🛡️ Guaranteed Approval

Every applicant within the eligible age range (45–85) is accepted — regardless of health status, medical history, or prior insurance denials.

🩺 No Medical Exam

No blood draws, no urine samples, no physician visits. The application is purely administrative — fast and stress-free.

🔒 Fixed Premiums for Life

Your premium is locked in at the rate you qualify for on day one. It never rises with age, inflation, or changes in your health.

💵 Cash Value Growth

Like all whole life policies, GI policies accumulate cash value you can borrow against — a built-in financial safety net over time.

📋 Graded Death Benefit

Most GI policies have a 2-year graded period. If death occurs in years 1–2, beneficiaries receive premiums paid plus interest (typically 10%). Full benefit pays after year 2.

🎯 Flexible Coverage Amounts

Coverage typically ranges from $2,000 to $25,000 — sized to cover final expenses without over-insuring. Some carriers offer up to $50,000.

The Numbers

Why Final Expense Coverage Matters

Whole life is an excellent fit if any of these apply to your situation:

$11,000+

Average U.S. funeral cost

The median cost of a funeral with burial in the United States — a figure many families are completely unprepared to cover out-of-pocket.

73%

Of Americans have no final expense plan

Nearly three quarters of Americans have made no financial provisions for end-of-life costs — leaving families in crisis at the worst possible moment.

$15–$50

Typical monthly premium

Many seniors secure $10,000–$20,000 in Guaranteed Issue coverage for less than the cost of a daily cup of coffee.

Common Questions

Guaranteed Issue FAQs

A graded benefit means the full death benefit is not paid if the insured dies within the first 2 years of the policy (typically from natural causes). During this period, most carriers return 100–110% of premiums paid to beneficiaries. After 2 years, the full death benefit applies. Accidental death is usually covered in full from day one.
Eligibility is based solely on age — typically 45 to 85 years old — and U.S. residency. No health criteria whatsoever. Even those with serious conditions like cancer, heart disease, diabetes, COPD, kidney disease, or HIV are eligible.
Most Guaranteed Issue policies offer between $2,000 and $25,000 in death benefit. Some carriers extend this to $50,000. The coverage is specifically designed to cover final expenses like funerals, medical bills, and small debts — not income replacement.
No. Your premium is locked in on the day your policy is issued and will never increase for the life of the policy — regardless of your age, health changes, or inflation. This makes budgeting simple and predictable.
In most cases, no. Life insurance death benefits — including Guaranteed Issue policies — are paid income-tax-free to your named beneficiaries. However, if the benefit becomes part of a taxable estate, estate taxes may apply. We recommend consulting a tax advisor for your specific situation.
Absolutely. Guaranteed Issue policies are commonly used as supplemental coverage alongside existing policies. If your term policy is expiring, or you want to specifically earmark funds for funeral costs separate from your estate, a GI policy is an excellent addition.
