Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B - Do not assist the split; seek the required ownership and source-of-funds information, and escalate through the insurer's AML process without disclosing any potential suspicious-activity report
Question 5
On January 5, an applicant submits a life insurance application and the initial premium. The conditional receipt states that coverage begins on the later of the application date or the required medical-exam date if the applicant is insurable at the applied-for standard class on that date. The exam is completed January 8, underwriting later confirms standard insurability, and the applicant dies in an accident on January 10 before policy issue. Which conclusion follows?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A - Coverage began January 8, so the death claim is payable subject to the contract

Question 7
Federal COBRA applies to an employer's plan. An employee loses coverage because of a reduction in hours and elects 18-month continuation.
