No cost to you. If you ever buy a policy through us, the insurance company pays us — you never do.

What an acquisition means

Genworth Life Insurance Company of New York took responsibility for policies issued by Montgomery Ward Life Insurance Co. on 1 January 2007. The record places it in New York, New York. Its NAIC number in that record is 62596. That is a transfer to a different insurer, so the servicing address and claim instructions can be different from the ones on the old paperwork.

Keep the original policy number. Ask the current insurer to confirm the policy is in force and to send its current service and claim instructions in writing.

Ownership trail

Your record has more than one handoff. Follow the names in order when you call so the current insurer can match the old policy number.

  1. Montgomery Ward Life Insurance Co.
  2. Union Fidelity Life Insurance Company
  3. Genworth Life Insurance Company of New York — the current endpoint shown in the record.

What to ask after a transfer

Ask Genworth Life Insurance Company of New York when it took this policy block over, whether the old policy number still works, and where a beneficiary should send a claim. Keep the answer with the contract.

For the handoff checklist, see what to ask the current insurer and how to find the policy record.
