Military retirees and their spouses may not realize their retirement pay stops at midnight on the day they die. Spouses can receive a lifetime, inflation-adjusted annuity, but only if the servicemember elected to participate in the Survivor Benefit Plan (SBP) -- a benefit requiring payments over 30 years, in most cases.
 
Unsure whether SBP is right for you? Have questions about the program, the payments, or the coverage options? MOAA can help.
 
Join Lila Quintiliani, MOAA’s program director for Financial and Benefits Education/Counseling, Jen Goodale, MOAA’s director of Government Relations for Military Family and Survivor Policy, and special guest Heather Walrath, lead education presenter and military benefits liaison at Navy Mutual, as we discuss why (or why not) the SBP might be a good choice for you and your family. We'll cover:

• SBP Basics: How the program works, what coverage is available, and how much it costs. 
• Comparing Options: How SBP stacks up with life insurance plans.
• Special Considerations: How medical retirement or having an incapacitated child might affect your plans.
• The Big Picture: How to integrate SBP coverage with other survivor benefits.

 
Whether you're recently retired from service and beginning your future financial planning, or you're farther along your journey, or you're a military spouse seeking clarity on the sometimes-confusing SBP process, this webinar will help you make critical decisions about your family's finances.
