Basic Insurance

Basic life insurance is equal to the greater of (a) your annual rate of basic pay rounded up to the next $1,000 plus $2,000 or (b) $10,000. The Federal Government pays one-third of the cost of your Basic life insurance. The U.S. Postal Service pays 100% of the cost of Basic for Postal Service employees. Basic insurance includes the Extra Benefit and Accidental Death and Dismemberment coverage.

Premiums for Basic coverage depend on the amount of Basic you have, not on your age. Federal employees currently pay 15 cents per thousand dollars of Basic coverage.

(For ages 45 and above, there is no Extra Benefit.)
Age at Death Basic Insurance Amount Extra Benefit Total Basic Life Insurance

The Extra Benefit is provided to employees under age 45 at no additional cost. This extra benefit doubles the amount of Basic life insurance payable if you are age 35 or younger. Beginning on your 36th birthday, the Extra Benefit decreases 10% each year until at age 45 there is no Extra Benefit.

Option B - Additional
(Number of Multiples = 5)
You may elect Option B life insurance in an amount equal to one, two, three, four or five times your annual basic pay (after rounding up to the next $1,000). The cost of Option B insurance depends on your age, in five year age brackets. When you have a birthday that moves you to another age group, you will begin paying the premiums for the new age group in the first pay period that starts after your birthday.
