Citi Benefits Handbook
Life Insurance for Your Children
If you have enrolled in GUL insurance coverage for you or your spouse/partner, you can enroll for life insurance from $5,000 to $20,000, in $5,000 increments, for your eligible dependent children. Life insurance coverage is provided by MetLife. To enroll in child life coverage, call MetLife at 1 (888) 830-7380 or visit the MetLife MyBenefits website available through My Total Compensation and Benefits at www.totalcomponline.com.
When you enroll in child life coverage, all your eligible children are covered. You may enroll your eligible children in GUL coverage at any time without evidence of insurability. Coverage for a child generally ends on the day the child reaches the maximum age of 27, or earlier if you lose eligibility for coverage.
Separately, you must report the birth or adoption of any child to the Citi Benefits Center through ConnectOne at 1 (800) 881-3938 within 31 days of the birth or adoption. See the For More Information section for detailed instructions, including TDD and international assistance.
Unless you have designated a beneficiary — other than yourself — to receive these benefits, benefits will be paid to:
  • You, if you survive the dependent;
  • Your estate, if the dependent dies at the same time your death occurs; or
  • Your estate, if the dependent dies within 24 hours after your death.
You may designate or change your beneficiary for life insurance for your child at any time by calling MetLife at 1 (888) 830-7380 or visit the MetLife MyBenefits website available through My Total Compensation and Benefits at www.totalcomponline.com.
