- 63333 POINTSview profilePeggy MaceMost of the U.S.If the paperwork is filled out completely and a certified death certificate is included with the paperwork, a life insurance claim can go through within a few weeks. However, even if there are problems, it is important for the life insurance company to get the check to the beneficiary within a couple of months. State regulators monitor this to be sure beneficiaries are paid in a timely manner.Answered on November 6, 2013flag this answer
