Who Is Allowed To Apply For a Child’s Policy?
Parents, grandparents and legal guardians of the proposed insured baby, child or teen can all submit an application for a Great Start® child whole life insurance policy. Parents have an obvious concern and interest in insuring their babies and children, but grandparents today are often equally involved in the lives of their grandchildren and seek out the protection offered by Guarantee Trust Life Insurance policies.

What Are The Ages Of Children Who Can Qualify?
For a baby or child to qualify for a Great Start® child whole life insurance policy, they must be between the ages of 1 day old through one day before they turn 25. These are the ages when it is easiest to acquire quality whole life insurance and every guardian should consider this opportunity to secure a policy for that special child in their life when rates are most affordable.

Can My Child Keep Their Policy Into Adulthood?
Life insurance can sometimes be harder to obtain when we are older and start to face more health challenges. That is why it is important to secure a whole life policy for your child when they are young. Once they secure a Great Start® child whole life insurance policy they are guaranteed to keep their protection into adulthood as long as premiums are paid. As an adult, your child will have three opportunities (at age 31, 34 and 37) to increase their coverage, up to 4 times the original plan, regardless of their health or occupation!

Will My Child Be Able To Afford Their Policy As An Adult?
Securing a Great Start® whole life insurance policy when your child is young means that they enjoy low rates for quality insurance. And this extends into the future. For instance, at age 25 the life insurance premium for $20,000 in coverage will increase to $372.00 annually and will remain unchanged for the rest of their life. That is a lot of coverage for a very affordable price!

What if My Child Wants To Join The Military?
For many of our children, military service will either be their career or part of their life’s journey. At Guarantee Trust Life Insurance, we honor those who serve our country and pledge that your child will be able to keep his or her insurance if they join and serve in any brand of our armed forces.
