    Writing a cover letter to insurance carriers informing them of the death of an insured should discuss the cause of death and the circumstances that surround it. Short and to the point communication is best. In the vast majority of cases, a family member, who may also be a beneficiary, compose cover letters to the insurance company. If the death occurred during the first two years, the insurance company will investigate the death with greater due diligence to confirm if suicide was that cause of death. If suicide was the cause of death the claim would be denied.

    How to write a letter for a life insurance claim?  There really isn't a need to. Contact the carrier or go online and you will find or request a death claim form. In it, there should be instructions on how to fill out and what additonal paperwork may be necessary. Usually a certified copy of the death certificate is needed for submittal.  Your agent should be able to help you complete the steps you need to.
