Producer Appointment Requests

October 3, 2023

As a reminder, we are a just-in-time carrier. This means that we process state appointments for producers at the time of application.

We don’t process producer appointment requests until you submit your new business application, except for Pennsylvania which is a pre-appointment state.

To avoid processing delays, please include any required documentation of Annuity Suitability & Best Interest Standard certificates with your producer contracting paperwork.
