Step by Step Guide to File a Life Insurance Claim with Augustar Life
Step #1. Contact the Claims Department and inform them of the death
They’ll confirm the policy was active and send you their Claim Form to complete. This will also stop the insurer from billing for premiums.
Step #2. Get a final death certificate and mail it to Augustar Life
They’ll want an original death certificate, not a copy. These can be purchased from the funeral home.
Step #3. Submit the Claimant’s Statement
This form asks for information about the beneficiary such as name, address, social security number and the form of payment requested. The beneficiary must provide a social security or tax payor number.
Step #4. Choose a form of payment
Depending on the insurance company and the size of the claim, several different payment options are available:
- Check made out to the beneficiary.
- A checkbook issued to the beneficiary.
- Periodic installment payments.
Step #5. Confirm all documents are received in the Claims Department
Because communication from an insurer is quite slow, take the proactive step of confirming that all documents have been received by the Claims Department.
