Change beneficiary letter
When a change of beneficiary is required, then a change beneficiary letter may be required to complete the process. It’s a very simple process and letter to write as it’ll only require a few sentences and that’s it. However, you want to make sure you address the right person as the new beneficiary and have all the details accurate in the letter.
Starting to Write
Mention the obvious and that you wish to change the current beneficiary to a new one.
Provide accurate details of the new beneficiary and double check the spelling.
Specify that if any documentation or details not included are needed that you may be contacted with contact information enclosed.
