There will probably come a time when you need a Beneficiary Designation Form. Maybe you got married - or divorced. Maybe you had a baby or maybe you're a brand new grandparent. The people we care about can change and grow, but when that happens, is your paperwork keeping up? Do you know exactly who's listed on your life insurance policy?
