No. The person to be insured must be present; must answer the underwriting questions in person, and must sign the application themselves. The only time you can alter from this is in the case of a minor and the legal guardian takes out life insurance on the minor.

Who can own a life insurance policy on you?

A husband can buy a life insurance for his wife. Husband becomes the proposer and he is also the beneficiary in case of any unfortunate death of wife. Similarly a working wife can also propose a policy for her husband. Father or mother can take out a life insurance policy for their children. Children cannot take out life insurance policy on their parents name as there is no insurable interest for them to do so. Almost anyone with relationship interest can be the owner of someone else's life insurance policy. The further removed the proposed owner is form the insured, the harder it will be to explain ownership. Note that corporations can also be the owner of policies.

Can your ex-wife's grandparents have a life insurance policy on you if you didn't sign anything or have insurable interest in TN if you have kids with your ex and the policy was created before divorce?

If you had life insurance to cover your wife and children, then you may have not realized you could have agreed (if you were divorced) that your wife would continue to have your life insurance policy. I have no idea where the grandparents came into this. Get a copy of the life insurance policy and see a lawyer about this. There is a little more to it and therefore, more complicated. You really need legal advice on this one. Sorry I couldn't help you more.

You must keep the life insurance policy that was discussed in the divorce until your ex remarries. But there is nothing to keep you from buying a new policy and making your new wife ITS beneficiary. That has nothing to do with the divorce decree.

The circumstances can vary greatly here. It will depend on what the conditions of alimony are, for one. If the ex-husband isn't required to keep the ex-wife as a beneficiary on a life insurance policy, and decides to remove the ex-wife, then the ex-wife will receive nothing.

Can you have two people on your life insurance?

Yes. You can have any number of nominees for your insurance policy. In cases where there are multiple nominees, you need to mention the % sharing of the policy proceeds between the beneficiaries. Ex: You take a insurance policy and nominate your mom, sister and wife. You have to choose a % split that comes up to 100% Wife: 50% Mom: 30% Sis: 20% If there is only one nominee the default is 100% to that person
