Question

A sailor has been determined to be on an unauthorized absence (UA) for 31 days. What action, if any, occurs regarding his/her service member's group life insurance (SGLI)?

A) SGLI coverage remains unchanged
B) SGLI coverage is suspended
C) SGLI coverage is increased
D) SGLI coverage is terminated

Answer 1

SGLI coverage is suspended when a sailor is on an unauthorized absence for 31 days. Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

When a sailor is determined to be on an unauthorized absence (UA) for 31 days, their Service Member's Group Life Insurance (SGLI) coverage is suspended.

SGLI is a group term life insurance policy available to members of the military and provides coverage for the duration of their service. However, if a sailor is on an unauthorized absence for more than 30 days, their coverage is suspended and they are not eligible to file a claim during that time. Option B
