VETERANS LIFE
INSURANCE

Many veterans have become
discouraged because of the
failure to receive premium re-
ceipts covering their remittan-
ces for their premiums.
Each branch officer is max
ing an honest effort to straight
ten out this record so that the
pay accounts of every policy
are up-to-date. Right now, the
branch officer is sending out a
form letter to all such veter-
ans where it is not clearly es-
tablished that payments on the
insurance are current. Nm
doubtedly, many men will re-
ceive these letters who have
made their monthly payments,
but who have not received
premium receipts from the
Veterans Administration.
We advise every veteran who
receives one of these letters to
sit down and list the dates OF
payments which have not been
credited to his account, by
showing the approximate day
and the type of remittances
that were made. Make doubly
sure that your name is written
as it appears on the discharge
and that the IN" if possible is
used. and above all make sure
that the serial number is list
ed in the letter.
In some cases it may be ad-
visable for the veteran to sub
NIT an application for rein
statement which Of course,
should be done before Aug
ust 1, 1947, or within three
months Of the date that the
nolicy has lapsed. This will a.
void having to submit a physl-
cal examination report. In
most cases it will help to lden-
tifv remittances that are in the
hands of the Veterans ADMIN
istration, but not credited to
the insured's account.
