• Applications currently in underwriting that are issued on or after August 10, 2015 will automatically receive the new lower premiums if applicable. A request for the new rates will not be required. If the application was submitted with premium using the previously higher rates, the difference will be automatically refunded.
• For policies already issued, New Business will require notification of the desired change to reissue the policy at the new rates.
• For policies already placed, we will not allow rewrites to the new Lincoln LifeElements Level Term (2014) – rates as of 08/10/15.
