Proposed Changes to Designation of Death Benefit Beneficiary Form
The Enrollment and Legal Department propose the following changes to the Designation of Death Benefit Beneficiary Form. Enrollment proposes clarifying language changes. The Legal Department proposes adding a Payable on Death designation option. This addition will allow Tribal members to designate heirs who would be eligible to receive any outstanding monetary benefits owed to them at the time of their death. All changes appear in red ink.
