Update to AIG L&R AML Training Requirements

Effective immediately, any financial professional appointed with an AIG Life & Retirement business now has a 2-year window to renew their AML training, dating back to the last date of AML training completion.

As of August 1st, LGA will no longer accept traditional paper life insurance applications (LIA)

Last month, we reached out to you with important news affecting those advisors using the traditional paper LIA (ICC08-LIA and state variations) to submit business for Banner (non-NY) business.  

Highlights included:

• Introduction of an alternative application to the traditional paper LIA — a new LIA (ICC17-LIA and state variations for CA, DE, FL, ND, SD) that is accessible in the Forms section of LGA's Partner Dashboard 
• Overview of changes made to their traditional application process until they retire the traditional paper LIA  

Effective August 1, LGA will no longer accept the traditional LIA (ICC08-LIA and state variations). As of this date, these forms will no longer be accepted. All applications must be submitted with either the new LIA or the digital application through their Horizon platform.
