Nominee in life insurance policy

(Querist) 05 December 2011 This query is : Resolved 
D/Sir(s),

I had taken a Life Insurance Policy during 1999, at that time i was unmarried and had nominated nominee to my elder brother. I got married in 2004,i continue paying my premium but nominee has not been changed to my wife name, does it create any problem, in case of any mishap (God forbid) to me or i shall try to change the nominee as my wife as soon as possible?

Thx and reg,

you can change nomination. Contact your agent or visit office of policy, they will do needful.

Yes nomination can be changed now.
Advocate. Arunagiri (Expert) 05 December 2011
Nomination can be changed. Give the request to the Branch Manager of that Insurance Company.
Kiran Kumar (Expert) 05 December 2011
A nominee is merely entitled to receive the money....as far as distribution of money is concerned the legal heirs will be entitled as per the law.

but you may get the nomination changed if you still have any doubts.

You can change nomination any time. It is your right to nominate the person you like or prefer.

Better now take up with the insurance company so as to change the nomination in favour of your wife and also get the new nomination endorsed in the insurance policy, to avoid and further issues.
