Coverage Amount Close How much coverage do I need? If you are a family breadwinner with dependents, financial planners suggest carrying ten times your annual income. If you are a non-working caregiver at home, we suggest your choice of $150,000 to $500,000. If you are looking for burial coverage only, we suggest $5,000 to $25,000.

Any tobacco, nicotine, marijuana, vape or tobacco substitute use? Close Why do life insurers ask about this? Nicotine use of any kind, including marijuana use, is looked at very closely by all life insurers. Smoking, chewing, inhaling in a vaporized form, consuming in edible products, and wearing a patch on the skin, all constitute use of these products. Non-admittance of marijuana use can result in a decline. Sources of information the insurer may use include: statements made on your application, telephone interviews, your paramed exam results (if one is required), your outside medical records and your Medical Information Bureau (MIB) profile. If you currently use marijuana AND any product containing tobacco or nicotine, please select the response that most closely describes your tobacco or nicotine use. Always be 100% honest when you answer tobacco use questions to ensure accurate quotes. Remember, a false statement on an application for insurance could void your coverage.
Height & Weight	Height Weight (with clothes on) Close Why does the life insurance company need to know your actual weight? Weight (with clothes on) is a key rating factor with all life insurance companies. Please give an honest answer here so that you can receive accurate rate quotes. And keep in mind that the paramed examiner who visits you will be carrying a portable scale, so be honest here.

Non-medical questions that can affect your premium

Did you think that life insurance companies look only at your health history? Not true. Today, life insurance companies look just as closely at many non-medical aspects as they do at your health. Items looked at very closely include disability, receiving government benefits, open bankruptcy, U.S. citizen status, hazardous activities such as mountain climbing or racing, intended foreign travel to dangerous countries, private pilot intentions, scuba diving habits, driving and criminal record status. In order to receive an accurate rate quote, always be honest in your answers to these questions.
