What is contigency underwriting?
Contingency underwriting refers to the practice of providing insurance coverage for specific events or situations that fall outside of the usual scope of coverage provided by a standard policy. Insurers may offer contingency coverage for unique risks that require customized terms and conditions. This type of underwriting allows insurers to tailor coverage to meet the specific needs of a client for non-standard risks.

What does reentry mean regarding term life insurance?
Re-entry in regards to term life insurance is the process of re-qualifying for favorable underwriting rates after a specified period of time. For example, if one purchases a 10-year life insurance policy then the rates are level for 10 years. After the 10-year period, the rates will go up dramatically. However, some policies offer the option to go through additional underwriting and re-qualify for a good rating. The rates of the policy will still go up since the insured is now 10 years older than when the policy was originally issued. But the rates will be significantly less than if re-entry does not happen. Of course, if a policy does not technically allow for re-entry, an insured can simply apply for a new policy. The underwriting of the new policy will be identical to the re-entry underwriting.
What if policy holder forgets to sign their name on policy?

It depends upon the underwriting rules of the insurer to which application is made.

Standard fire policy, is the insurance cover against perils such as fire, lightining, domestic explosion of boiler or gases.

Also, when underwritting for this policy, the nature of construction will be determined, materials used in construction if are fire resistant. Another important consideration, is the use of the building is, the uses of the building indicated types of exposure of fire may be possible at the location.
Can term life be changed to permanent life?
Yes, most term insurance policies allow for "conversion" of the term policy to a permanent policy at standard rates without having to re-qualify medically for the new policy. The best thing to do is read the policy in the section on conversion. If you are still in good health you can probably get better rates than "standard" by reapplying for a new policy and going through the medical underwriting. If something comes up and the rate is higher you can always convert the term policy at the standard rate. You may also want to remember to shop a little among top companies as some do better at term while others may be better at permanent insurance. Educate yourself to find out what you need first.
