Life insurance changes on disability retirement

0

Q. Can you make changes to any options on life insurance when you leave and are approved on FERS disability? I will be 62 in a year and a half. Can you increase or decrease amounts?

A. You cannot increase the amount of your coverage. While you can cancel your Option A insurance, you can either reduce or cancel your Option B or C insurance. If you were to cancel your basic insurance, all other coverages would automatically be canceled.
