In Good Order Guidelines

Every financial professional has the same goal, to write good business that moves through the process quickly and efficiently, allowing your clients to receive the benefits they are buying, and you to receive your commission payment in a timely manner.

At Security Benefit, we have the same goals for each new business application you write.

If you follow the checklist below, you can be assured each new business application will be complete and then processed by us in the specified time. 

Please mail the completed application and forms to:

Security Benefit
P.O. Box 750497
Topeka, KS 66675-0497
