Tips & Tricks On How To Write The Perfect E-Application!
- Before you write your first application watch GCU’s E-App Video
- Review GCU’s Agent Underwriting guidebook
- Non-Resident Licenses – you cannot write business in a state where you are not licensed with GCU
- Beneficiary SSN preferred but not required. Do not use 000-00-0000 etc.
- Client must have been seen within 12 months if 70 years or older and past 24 months if from ages 61-69
- Walk-in clinics do not apply
- Clients over the age of 50 must have a primary care physician
- Height/Weight up to date
- DO NOT USE ALL CAPITAL LETTERS IN THE e-app
- Legal names must be used – not nicknames
- Policies are not printed and mailed until AFTER the policy is funded
- Policies are mailed directly to the client
- Commissions are released after application is finalized by UW and/or New Business. If something is outstanding then commissions will not be paid until that is received and application has moved to approved state.
- All initial drafts must occur within 30 days of submitting the app. (Ex: if application completed on the 24th of the month, and client selects the 24th for the draft date, it will draft immediately)
- Please make sure to list annual household income on the application.
- Please make sure Owner, Payor and Primary beneficiaries have insurable interest.
- HIPPA form must be completed
