Your Rights
Information for the Person Completing This Form
(Either the Insured or an Assignee Who Is Reassigning Coverage)
The "Insured" is the employee, annuitant or compensationer.
The "Assignee" is the person(s), firm(s), or trust(s) (usually named on an Assignment form, RI 76-10) who owns and controls the Insured's life insurance
coverage. An assignment is
not
the same as a designation of beneficiary.
General
What Is An Assignment?
An assignment of life insurance is the transfer of
ownership and control of life insurance coverage from the Insured person to one or
more persons, firms or trusts. The assignee receives the death benefits when the
Insured dies, or may designate someone else to receive those benefits.
How Does An Assignment Differ From A Designation Of Beneficiary?
An
assignment transfers ownership and control of life insurance coverage. A
designation does not. An assignee has the right to reassign the coverage to someone
else. A designated beneficiary does not. The Insured can cancel a designation of
beneficiary at any time, but cannot cancel an assignment. You should use this form
(RI 76-10) to make an assignment and SF 2823 to make a designation.
How Does This Assignment Affect My Rights?
By assigning the insurance, you
give up:
1. The right to cancel the insurance coverage;
2. The right to designate and change beneficiaries;
3. The right to port (continue) Option B, if eligible, after the Insured resigns or
ends 12 months nonpay status;
4. The right to convert to a private insurance policy when the FEGLI coverage
terminates for any reason other than cancellation;
5. The right to change the post-65 reduction schedule for Basic insurance after
the Insured makes the original election when he/she retires or begins to
receive compensation. If the Insured chose No Reduction or 50% Reduction,
the Assignee(s) can change it to 75% Reduction (unless the Insured received
a Living Benefit). No one can change an election of No Reduction to 50%
Reduction. See the SF 2818, Continuation of Life Insurance Coverage as a
Retiree or Compensationer, for more information.
6. The right to change the post-65 reduction schedule for Option B insurance
after the Insured makes the original election when he/she retires or begins to
receive compensation, under certain circumstances. If the Insured chose No
Reduction, the assignee(s) can change it to Full Reduction. If the Insured
chose Full Reduction, the assignee cannot change it. See the SF 2818,
Continuation of Life Insurance Coverage as a Retiree or Compensationer,
for more information.
What Reduction Elections Can The Insured Make At Retirement?
The Insured
has the right to make the original election on how much Basic and Option B
coverage he/she wishes to retain after he/she is age 65 and retired.
The Insured can elect either 75% Reduction, 50% Reduction or No Reduction for
Basic (see the SF 2818 for more information about these choices).
The Insured can elect either Full Reduction or No Reduction for Option B (see the
SF 2818 for more information about these choices). The Insured can change an
election of Full Reduction to No Reduction, as applicable.
What Reduction Elections Can The Assignee(s) Make?
The assignee(s) can
change the Insured's Basic election to 75% Reduction (if the Insured did not
already elect 75% Reduction). The assignee(s) can change the Insured's Option B
election to Full Reduction (if the Insured did not already elect Full Reduction).
Can I Cancel This Assignment?
No. This is an irrevocable assignment of life
insurance coverage. For example, you should not make an assignment as collateral
for a bank loan which you intend to repay in full. Even though you repay the loan,
that assignment will remain in effect.
When Is An Assignment Cancelled?
An assignment is void 31 days after the
Insured's FEGLI coverage end
s.
Should I Consult A Tax Attorney Or Other Professional Before Making This
Assignment?
You may want to. It is possible that assignment to a trust may not
exclude FEGLI benefits from your estate. It is also possible that you could inherit
the FEGLI coverage through designation or death of your assignee(s).
Is There Anything I Cannot Assign?
Yes. You cannot assign: (1) Family
optional insurance coverage (Option C). However, if the assignee(s) cancel(s) Basic
insurance, such cancellation automatically cancels all other FEGLI coverage,
including Option C. (2) The right to elect more insurance coverage. The Insured
retains this right. However, all of the insurance (except for Option C) that the
Insured elects will automatically be subject to the existing assignment. (This
applies to employees only; annuitants and compensationers cannot elect more
insurance coverage.)
Who Can Cancel The Premiums
? The assignee(s) can cancel the coverage. If
they do so, the premiums also stop. The Insured cannot cancel the premiums or the
coverage.
Completing the Form
Can I Name A Contingent Assignee?
No. You cannot name a contingent
assignee (for example, you cannot assign to Maria if she is living; otherwise to
Jose.)
What If I Make A Mistake?
If you erase or change anything on the form, you
should start again with a new form. Do not submit a form with erasures or
cross-outs.
What If The Insured Has Several Types Of FEGLI (Like Basic And Option
A)?
You must assign all of the insurance, although you do not have to assign it all
to the same person. You must assign percentages or fractions of the total insurance
that add up to 100% or 1, respectively.
Can I Assign Basic To Someone And Optional To Someone Else?
No. You
cannot assign types of coverage.
Can I Assign Dollar Amounts?
No.
Can I Assign Coverage To Myself?
No.
What If I Don't Have An Assignee's Social Security Number?
If you don't
know the number, leave it blank. We ask for the number because having it
sometimes helps to identify and locate the proper assignee
.

Privacy Act Statement
Title 5, U.S. Code, chapter 87, Life Insurance, authorizes solicitation of this information. The data
you furnish will be used to determine ownership of the Insured's Federal Employees' Group Life
Insurance. This information will be shared with the Office of Federal Employees' Group Life
Insurance in the event of the Insured's death. It will also be shared with the Office of Personnel
Management and be placed in the Insured's Official Personnel Folder or retirement file. This
information may be disclosed to other Federal agencies or Congressional offices which may have
a need to know it in connection with your application for a job, license, grant or other benefit. It
may also be shared and is subject to verification, via paper, electronic media, or through the use of
computer matching programs, with national, state, local or other charitable or social security
administrative agencies to determine and issue benefits under their programs. In addition, to the
extent this information indicates possible violation of civil or criminal law, it may be shared and
verified, as noted above, with an appropriate Federal, state, or local law enforcement agency.
We also request that you provide the Insured's Social Security Number so that it may be used as
an individual identifier in the Federal Employees' Group Life Insurance Program. Public Law
104-134 (April 26, 1996) requires that any person doing business with the Federal government
furnish a Social Security Number or tax identification number. This is an amendment to title 31,
Section 7701.
While the law does not require you to supply all the information requested on this form, doing so
will assist in the prompt processing of your assignment.
Agencies other than the Office of Personnel Management may have further routine uses for
disclosure of information from the records systems in which they file copies of this form. If this is
the case, they should provide you with any such uses which are applicable at the time you
complete this form.
