    Just as I promised, we’ve added another new feature to Services Online (SOL). Now, you can see your current Federal Employees Group Life Insurance (FEGLI) coverage on line.

    To view and download your FEGLI or Verification of Life Insurance you will first need to log into SOL. If you have forgotten your password or have not logged onto SOL within the last 15 months simply log in to www.ServicesOnline.opm.gov and click the “forgot password link” to request a password.

    Once you log in to SOL, select the Verification of Life Insurance (FEGLI) link. Then follow the easy on screen instructions to print your FEGLI coverage information.

    While you can see your coverage amount, you will not be able to see your FEGLI designation of beneficiary election. If you are not sure who you designated as your beneficiary, or you have had a significant life change, such as a marriage, divorce, or death, you may want to consider completing a new designation of beneficiary form. You should also file a new designation of beneficiary form whenever a beneficiary's address changes. Failure to do so may mean that the Office of Federal Employees' Group Life Insurance cannot locate your beneficiary and, therefore, cannot pay the life insurance death benefits due. You can download the Designation of Beneficiary form at http://www.opm.gov/Forms/pdf_fill/sf2823.pdf. If you have questions, please email us at retire@opm.gov or call 1(888) 767-6738 for further assistance.

    Don’t forget to access SOL to opt-in to receive your information electronically. You must opt-in by December 9, 2013, to ensure prompt delivery.

    For updates, reminders, information about the resources available on our website and online tools to help you manage your retirement account, follow us on Twitter at www.twitter.com/fedretireinfo.
