I am the mother of a daughter which is a minor child of Jonathan Stewart Dixon and he passed away in January of 2009, he said he had life insurance left for his daughter April Dixon and I'm trying to find out if he left her any insurance money. Thank You

Hi Debra, I'm sorry to hear about your loss.

Had he ever mentioned the name of the company he had the policy with? Was it through his employer?

IMO his workplace would be the best place to begin with. Give them a call and let us know how it went.

Thanks,
Rueprt

Hi Debra

Sorry to hear about your loss. Do you have access to any paper works of Jonathan's? They might help you too. And like Rupert said give his office a call and ask if they have ever made provisions for insurance for their employees. If you don't find enough information then check in to his bank statements (if you can). You might find payment details to an insurance company if he did have insurance.

Good advice from the posts above..however, ( this can be kind of 'sticky') if your DO talk to his Employer about the Life Insurance, you MAY have to PROVE what you say ( ei: a DNA test for the minor child). I know someone that went something similiar to this. She needed a DNA test for the child, My friend had a Birth Certificate with the deceased name, but,...that wasn't good enough. Yea...when you talk with them, I would like an update, too. Wink

What are you talking about??? Why in the world would a DNA test be needed? If she is the named beneficiary, it doesn't matter what a DNA test shows or doesn't show.

Well do you have a access to the papers?
Just try to find them in the house or ask to his friends that they can remember about it where he took a policy or just see old papers as there may be some papers of emi added to that policy.

If this still not work then you must see for other sites where you can get them .Or you have to wait till the policy period get over and the company comes to you.Also may be you will get a notice from them soon for adding emi.

Hi Debra...Here are some suggestions from CNN Money on locating a lost insurance policy.

Also, if none of this turns up anything...especially the checking of the mail for letters from the insurance company stating that it has lapsed or asking for the premium...you may have to wait 3 to 5 years until the insurance company turns over the unclaimed benefits to the state. At which point you would have to go looking through the comptrollers records or whatever agency in your state handles unclaimed monies.

Hopefully though, one of the ways listed before will work for you.

How to look for lost life insurance policies
Finding a policy may take some digging, but start here:

Oh and P.S Debra....it is never a good idea to post TMI(Too Much Information) online. Especially if you are an individual and it involves sensitive information, such as insurance or names of children .

Good luck!

This is the most absurd, convoluted, incorrect information SD has ever posted.

I'm now going to go sandpaper my eyeballs.

SD, I don't know what your "agenda" is on this message board but what you do is evil.

You post false information as if you know what you're talking about or total lies about having first hand experience with life insurance death claims or beneficiary designations.

The quote below is total unmitigated bllsht:

A person can name anyone they please as their beneficiary as long as there is an insurable interest at the time the policy is issued.

Even if there isn't any actual insurable interest a person has an insurable interest in their own lives and can simply name "The Estate" as primary benficiary then change that to their next door neighbor's second girlfriend's mother's daughter step-child from her 9th marriage,... after the policy is issued.

You're not even any fun to argue with any more, YOU'RE absurd.

Please write back now and tell how someone in the military told you this so that's way it is....
